Surat Luqman (Arabic: سورة لقمان, sūrat luqmān, "Luqman") is the 31st chapter (sura) of the Muslim holy book, the Qur'an. It is composed of 34 verses (ayat) and takes its title from the mention of the sage Luqman in verses 12–19. It was revealed in the middle of Prophet Muhammad's Meccan period, and is thus usually classified as a Meccan sura.[1]
