The Ruling on the Indefinite in the Context of Negation

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, regarding his saying:
And whatever you have of favor - it is from Allahوَمَا بِكُم مِّن نِّعْمَةٍ فَمِنَ اللَّهِ
[An-Nahl 16:53]
This is an indefinite noun in a context of negation, so where is the negation? May Allah grant you success.

Answer:
This is not a negation. "What is with you" — "what is with you" — this is a relative pronoun, and the relative pronoun is one of the forms of generality. Yes.
