Most people believe that asking questions is something that goes by itself. But I see that questions are like doors to the unknown and even keys to doors; if you open the right one with the good key, you may go where you need. With the wrong ones, you go nowhere, or worse, to the wrong place. Before seeking answers you need the skill to find the right question. This is why advisors are needed.
This reminds me of a story:
Nasreddin folded his legs, sat down in front of the sultan’s palace and proceeded to shout in the evening breeze, with the resounding tone of a muezzin calling to the prayer:
“All your questions answered, Inch Allah! Whoever you are, I answer your questions! Any questions. The pure truth! No wavering! One hundred silver dinar for two questions of your choice! Your deepest questions answered, Inch Allah!”
The sultan himself distracted by this noise came out and when Nasreddin was in his presence, asked:
“ Hodja, isn’t one hundred dinar shamelessly too much?”
“Yes Sublime Padishah, the answer is yes." replied Nasreddin. "And what is your second question?”
