مِمَّا among which
'Min' (of / from) fused with the relative 'ma' — 'of that which', a partitive 'among the things'. It singles out a portion: of what He is pleased with.

So he said, "You did not satisfy me with what I wanted."
مِمَّا of what
A fusion of the 'from' preposition with the 'what' relative, yielding 'of/with that which'. It governs the clause after it and links the unsatisfied state to the thing the speaker had been wanting.
وَلَقَدْ بُشِّرَ الصَّابِرُونَ بِثَلَاثٍ كُلُّ مِنْهَا خَيْرٌ مِمَّا عَلَيْهِ أَهْلُ الدُّنْيَا يَتَحَاسَدُونَ

مِمَّا than what
A preposition of comparison ('than') fused to a relative 'what', together meaning 'than what...'. It governs the relative into the genitive and sets up the thing being compared against.

مِمَّا from what
A fused 'from' plus 'what', together 'of the kind that / among the things which'. The preposition is partitive, sorting the forgotten matter into a category, and the 'what' opens the clause that then describes that category. So the bundle means 'of those things which [the earth trembles at]'.
وَتَكُونُ قَدْ خَرَجْتَ مِمَّا ضَمِنتَ لَهُ
And you will already have left what you guaranteed to him.
مِمَّا from what
The preposition 'min' (from) fused with the relative word 'ma' (what), the 'n' assimilating at the join: 'from what'. The preposition marks the source you depart from, and 'ma' nominalises the clause after it. So one word covers the English 'from what'.
فتختبر ذلك اليوم حتى يظهر خيرها من شرها ومؤديها من مضيعها وما كان لله مما لم يكن له
Then that humiliation will be tested that day until its good is revealed from its evil, its deliverer from its destroyer, and what was for God from what was not for Him.
مِمَّا from what
This single word fuses the preposition 'from' with the relative 'what' into one form, meaning 'from that which'. It both carves out a subset and opens a relative clause, so Arabic compresses two grammatical jobs, partitive and relative, into one merged word here.
وأجمعوا على أن من جحد منه حرفا مما أجمع عليه أو زاد حرفا لم يقرأ به أحد وهو عالم بذلك فهو كافر

مِمَّا of that which

مِمَّا of what
