Exegesis

The hina {ἵνα | hí-na} clause then expresses the unnecessary possibility of inquiry, not a command: tis se erotai {τίς σε ἐρωτᾷ | tis se erōtâi} describes anyone asking Jesus anything, but the preceding negation shows that such asking is superfluous because of His complete knowledge.

In contextJohn 16:30

Now we are convinced that You know everything, and You have no need for anyone to ask You; on this basis we believe that You came out from God .
