When asking a question, try to be as clear and specific as possible. For example, instead of just asking "What does Islam say about charity?", you could ask "What are the rules for giving zakat and sadaqah in Islam?" This will ensure you get a more tailored answer.

Ask to Simplify or Expand Answers:
You can request either simplified explanations or more detailed responses depending on your needs. If you're new to a topic, ask for a simple breakdown. If you're looking for deeper insight, ask for more extensive detail. For example:

• "Can you explain this in simpler terms?"

• "Can you provide a more detailed explanation?"

• "Explain zakat to a 6 years old"

Ask Follow-Up Questions:
If you don’t fully understand the answer or need more information, feel free to ask follow-up questions. You can ask for clarification on specific points or request more examples to make things clearer. For example:

• "Can you clarify the ruling on this?"

• "Could you give an example of this in daily life?"
