Kajal asked me if she could use my pen.

Explanation:

Changing reported speech is to share the past message given by someone. The sentences with a request are framed by using if while giving a report to the third party.

Similarly, sentences with words like may, please, can, etc. are replaced with if while converting to indirect speech. Said is the past form so the auxiliary verb could is used in the sentence. In reported speech, the rules are the different and tense form is changed.
