"Do you have?" or "Have you?"

I always thought, that "do" and "have" are modal verbs and they could never be in one sentence for the exception of perfect tenses. Please could you explain me, which of these two expressions is correct.
  

Top answer

The verb "to have" is often a "helping verb" and is used to create the perfect tenses. However, "to have" is also a legitimate verb in its own right I have a job I like. He has two kids.
