سؤال، شيء، مقولة

Point 1: Notice that the writer first refers to the "thing," whatever it was, as an argument, then in the same breath he/she calls it a question. This ambivalence gives you some leeway - a variety of choices.

Point 2: In a sentence like this, you take "argument" and "made" as a unit.

الشيء الوحيد الذي تفوهت به

المقولة الوحيدة التي قلتها

الفكرة الوحيدة التي طرحتها

الأمر الوحيد الذي صدر مني

السؤال الوحيد الذي وجهته
