Satan has invented some nasty ideas and inspired the iunbelievers Arabs to perform; they are: the Holy and Forbidden cattle, the Holy and Forbidden tillage and crops:, the Forbidden backs of the camels and the Name of Allah is not invoked.

In the previous article, the unbelievers among the jinn would have many varieties of cooperation with the unbelievers among mankind by inspiring wicked men with invented evil ideas in order to keep them on the wrong path that ultimately leads to Eternal fire in the Afterlife e.g.burying their daughters alive.
Ayah 6:138 illustrates some other malicious ideas that the devils jinn invented and inspired the wicked idolators among the Arabs to perform.
These nasty ideas that the idolators among the Arabs used to do and to keep on are:
§ The Holy and Forbidden cattle:
§ The Holy and Forbidden tillage and crops:
§ The Forbidden backs of the camels
§ The Name of Allah is not invoked
The devils jinn inspired these ideas to the idolators among the Arabs and assured them that gods will be pleased if they perform those ideas which are but invented by their big boss, the Satan.
The idolators assert them and had no argument for such sinful ideas.
The Holy and Forbidden cattle:
They said: These cattle are sacrosanct and forbidden. No one is to eat of them except whom we will
The Holy and Forbidden tillage and crops:
They said: this tillage is sacrosanct and forbidden. No one is to eat of them except whom we will.
The Forbidden backs of the camels
They said: the backs of these camels are forbidden and cannot therefore be ridden.
The Name of Allah is not invoked
They had some cattle over which they did not invoke the Name of Allah, when they slaughter them, invoking instead the names of their idols.
Ayah 6:138 says:
They are forging lies against Allah and He will assuredly requite them for what they used to fabricate against Him. Allah will repay them for that which they invent.

YUSUFALI:
and they say that such and such cattle and crops were taboo, and none should eat of them except those whom – so they say – we wish; further, there were cattle forbidden to yoke or burden, and cattle on which, (at slaughter), the name of Allah is not pronounced; – inventions against Allah’s name: soon will he requite them for their inventions.
