I don't understand why this sentence be used ' Do you have'.

It is similar to saying:

Are you strong enough to work and live abroad? = Do you have the strength to work and live abroad?

Are you able to play tennis? = Do you have the skills to play tennis?

Are you experienced enough to lead the team? = Do you have the experience to lead the team?


Are you rich enough to go to the cinema? = Do you have enough money to go to the cinema?

I am rich enough to go to the cinema. I have enough money to go to the cinema.


I hope the examples help. :)

Thank you very much for your correcting, Steave.:)) この文がそのようなニュアンスになるとは知りませんでした。(笑) I'm studying at language school in America. 上の文章はあまり一般的ではないのでしょうか?

"Do you have" = 持っていますか。 "What it takes" = スキルや能力や勇気や忍耐。 属性を持っていますか? It sounds almost like 軍隊のための広告! (笑)
