The study used the experimental approach based on a quasi-experimental design for two control and experimental groups. The research community was represented in all intermediate school students in Qatif city, and the research sample was chosen randomly, and its number was 50 students, 22 students representing the control group, and 28 students representing the experimental group from the same first level of intermediate school. The research entailed building many tools, including: a list of Qur’anic text comprehension skills, a test of Qur’anic text comprehension skills for the tafsir subject, and a teacher’s guide for teaching tafsir using the answer-relationship strategy. The results of the current research revealed the effectiveness of the question-answer relationship strategy in developing the skills of understanding the Qur’anic text, especially understanding and knowledge of assumptions in the interpretation approach among students of the stage. The two researchers recommended to benefit from the question-answer strategy in teaching the Tafsir curriculum among intermediate school students and recommended the need to raise awareness among teachers of the importance of teaching skills.
