問題 (もんだい) is a question as in "problem" as in on a test or some kind issue you would be working out. (http://jisho.org/word/問題)
質問 (しつもん) is a question as in an inquiry made by someone. (http://jisho.org/word/質問)
The correct usage is that the kanji is not used when kudasai is a helping verb (as it is in this case).
