This is because client.ask is being used with the wrong arguments, probably after migrating between major releases without fixing the breaking changes.

I suppose you're using pyrogram v2 (since the property registered_handler is named user_callback on v1 and original_callback on v3).

On v1, your code is correct.

Phone_Number = await client.ask(chat,f"- قم بأرسال رقم الهاتف .")

On v2, as stated on the release notes, pyromod started receiving tuple identifiers instead of the chat_id. The correct code for v2 would be:

Phone_Number = await client.ask(f"- قم بأرسال رقم الهاتف .", (chat, None, None))

Note that the argument text comes first now.

On v3 though, it's easier:

Phone_Number = await client.ask(chat,f"- قم بأرسال رقم الهاتف .")

Just like pyromod v1, with no tuple identifiers and with the chat_id as first positional argument. Read the release notes for v3 here.

I suggest you to read the release notes before migrating between major releases. They always contains breaking changes (otherwise they would not be major).
