وَلَقَدْ آتَيْنَا لُقْمَانَ الْحِكْمَةَ أَنِ اشْكُرْ لِلَّهِ ۚ وَمَن يَشْكُرْ

And We had certainly given Luqman wisdom [and said], "Be grateful to Allah ."
And whoever is grateful is grateful for [the benefit of] himself. And whoever
denies [His favor] - then indeed, Allah is Free of need and Praiseworthy.
Muhsin Khan
And indeed We bestowed upon Luqman Al-Hikmah (wisdom and religious
understanding, etc.) saying: "Give thanks to Allah," and whoever gives thanks,
he gives thanks for (the good of) his ownself. And whoever is unthankful, then
verily, Allah is All-Rich (Free of all wants), Worthy of all praise.
Pickthall
And verily We gave Luqman wisdom, saying: Give thanks unto Allah; and whosoever
giveth thanks, he giveth thanks for (the good of) his soul. And whosoever
refuseth - Lo! Allah is Absolute, Owner of Praise.
Yusuf Ali
we bestowed (in the past) Wisdom on Luqman: "Show (thy) gratitude to Allah." Any
who is (so) grateful does so to the profit of his own soul: but if any is
ungrateful, verily Allah is free of all wants, Worthy of all praise.

whoever is grateful, he is only grateful for his own soul; and whoever is
ungrateful, then surely Allah is Self-sufficient, Praised.

And [mention, O Muhammad], when Luqman said to his son while he was instructing
him, "O my son, do not associate [anything] with Allah . Indeed, association
[with him] is great injustice."
Muhsin Khan
And (remember) when Luqman said to his son when he was advising him: "O my son!
Join not in worship others with Allah. Verily! Joining others in worship with
Allah is a great Zulm (wrong) indeed.
Pickthall
And (remember) when Luqman said unto his son, when he was exhorting him: O my
dear son! Ascribe no partners unto Allah. Lo! to ascribe partners (unto Him) is
a tremendous wrong -
Yusuf Ali
Behold, Luqman said to his son by way of instruction: "O my son! join not in
worship (others) with Allah: for false worship is indeed the highest
wrong-doing."
Shakir
And when Luqman said to his son while he admonished him: O my son! do not
associate aught with Allah; most surely polytheism is a grievous iniquity--
Dr. Ghali
And as Luqman said to his son (while) he was admonishing him, "O my son, do not
associate (others) with Allah. Surely associating (others with Allah) is indeed
a monstrous injustice."

beneficence. And closely follow the way of him who (turns) penitent to Me.
Thereafter to Me will be your return; then I will (fully) inform you of whatever

One's Faith in Allah (of Islamic Monotheism) knowledge, wisdom, guidance for
doing righteous deeds, and also the pleasures and delights of the Hereafter in
Paradise, etc.]? Yet of mankind is he who disputes about Allah without knowledge
or guidance or a Book giving light!
