Quran 31:21 (Ayah Luqman)
When it is said to them, “Follow what Allah has revealed,” they reply, “No! We ˹only˺ follow what we found our forefathers practicing.” ˹Would they still do so˺ even if Satan is inviting them to the torment of the Blaze? Quran 31:21 Surah Luqman (Lukman)
This Surah is named after the wise person called, Luqman – who was well known amongst the Arabs for his wisdom.
It is the 31st Chapter of the Quran, There are 34 Verses in it.
وَإِذَا قِیلَ لَهُمُ ٱتَّبِعُوا۟ مَاۤ أَنزَلَ ٱللَّهُ قَالُوا۟ بَلۡ نَتَّبِعُ مَا وَجَدۡنَا عَلَیۡهِ ءَابَاۤءَنَاۤۚ أَوَ لَوۡ كَانَ ٱلشَّیۡطَـٰنُ یَدۡعُوهُمۡ إِلَىٰ عَذَابِ ٱلسَّعِیرِ
In this Surah, Tawhid is emphasized and Shirk and its ideas are critically examined. It tells us that those who are following Shirk they are only blindly following their forefathers. The true wisdom is to believe in Allah. The advises of Luqman the wise are also given here to support the same principles.
اور جب ان سے کہا جاتا ہے کہ پیروی کرو اُس چیز کی جو اللہ نے نازل کی ہے تو کہتے ہیں کہ ہم تو اُس چیز کی پیروی کریں گے جس پر ہم نے اپنے باپ دادا کو پایا ہے کیا یہ انہی کی پیروی کریں گے خواہ شیطان اُن کو بھڑکتی ہوئی آگ ہی کی طرف کیوں نہ بلاتا رہا ہو؟
