Assalam olaikum,
There is ample wisdom behind the advice of Hakim Luqman to his son to keep away from shirk.
Allah (swt) says in the Holy Quran: ‘Verily, Allah forgives not that rivals should be set up in worship with Him. He forgives save that (anything else) to whom He pleases and whoever sets rivals with Allah he hath indeed done a grave sin.’
This verse emphatically shows that shirk is a tremendous sin.
Shirk is considered to be the biggest sin in Islam because Allah (swt) says in the Holy Quran: ‘Turn unto Allah (only) not ascribing partners unto Him, for whoso ascribes partners unto Allah, it is as if he has fallen from the sky and the birds had snatched him or the wind has blown him to a distant place’. (TMQ- Al Hajj: 31)
Though man is considered to be the best of Almighty Allah’s creation yet man can fall down to the lowest levels if he commits the sin of shirk or associating partners with Almighty Allah..
