“Indeed, Luqman was among the thankful when his Lord called to him, ‘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. 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.'”

Translation: In simpler terms, these verses are about a man named Luqman who was very thankful to Allah. He told his son not to worship anyone or anything except Allah because that would be very wrong.
