I'm not exactly sure myself that it is a relative pronoun, and should probably retract that part of the statement. However, it is a pronoun (it takes the place of a noun), and it's OK to leave out the noun (and its article) if a pronoun takes its place.
The multiple uses of que is also a sore spot for beginners. Thanks for the link that shows when que can mean because, because I couldn't remember.
