Due to the wrongdoing of the Jews, We prohibited them certain good things that were permitted to them [earlier], and for their barring many [people] from the way of Allah,
— Ali Quli Qarai
Surah An-Nisa', Verse 160
160. "And for the injustice from those of the Jews We did forbid them those good things which had been made lawful for them (before), and for their much hindering (people) from the path of Allah."
Perhaps, the objective meaning of the good things that became forbidden for them is the same things which are mentioned in Surah Al-'An'am. No.5. verse 146. It says:
This very prohibition is also found in the present Torah. (Leviticus, Chapter 11)
Explanations
Injustice is the preparation for deprivation from bounties. Sometimes, some economical deprivations and material straitened circumstances are signs for the wrath and retribution of Allah.
Hindering people from the path of Allah, in any form it may be, (including: distortion, concealment, innovation, corruption, and deviation), is the cause of deprivation.
In fact, the main punishments will be given in Hereafter, yet the worldly retributions are for awareness. They are as penalty for the evil doers and as trial for the good doers.
