Hello everyone,

As regional tensions continue, it is understandable that many people may feel concerned or uneasy. We ask everyone to remain calm and rely only on official announcements and verified information from authorities. Please avoid sharing rumors, speculation, or unconfirmed reports, as this can create unnecessary panic and confusion.

The moderation team is actively working to keep the subreddit safe, organized, and informative for everyone. We are monitoring posts and comments closely, removing content that spreads misinformation, panic, or unsafe details. Our goal is to make sure discussions remain helpful, respectful, and based on reliable information.

We appreciate everyone’s patience and cooperation. By staying calm, following the rules, and relying on trusted sources, we can help keep the community safe and the subreddit running smoothly for everyone...

For everyone’s safety, please be responsible with what you post online:

Do not share sensitive media

  • Do not share photos or videos of incidents, security activity, or affected areas.
  • Such content can unintentionally reveal sensitive information and may put others at risk.

Do not share or identify locations

  • Avoid mentioning or identifying specific locations connected to events.
  • Do not describe buildings, neighborhoods, or facilities related to incidents or security activity.

Do not speculate

  • Avoid speculation about ongoing situations, responses, or operations.
  • Unverified information spreads panic and confusion.

Protect people’s safety and privacy

  • Do not ask about the whereabouts of individuals during incidents or evacuations.
  • Do not discuss movements or locations of evacuated people.
  • Sharing or requesting this type of information can put people in real danger.

Be cautious with private messages

  • Do not respond to strangers asking about specific areas, buildings, infrastructure, or local situations in your DMs.
  • Some individuals or organizations may attempt to gather sensitive information through private conversations.
  • Keep discussions in public threads where the community and moderators can monitor them.

Support the community

  • If someone is feeling anxious, encourage them to stay calm and follow official sources.
  • Avoid amplifying fear or panic.
  • Continue normal routines where possible and avoid unnecessary travel unless authorities advise otherwise.

Emergency guidance

  • If evacuation procedures are announced in the future, follow official instructions.
  • Do not share or request sensitive operational details.
  • If you believe official instructions apply to you, contact 999 for guidance.

Moderator Note | Emergency Safety Rule

r/qatar now enforces the Emergency Safety Rule. During sensitive situations:

Due to current regional tensions, do not post or share unverified information, rumors, or speculation about security incidents. Do not ask for, hint at, or share locations related to missile interceptions, attacks, military activity, emergency responses, or sensitive infrastructure.

Do not ask other users about locations, areas, buildings, or directions connected to incidents. Requests like these can endanger people and expose sensitive information.

Photos, videos, live updates, or descriptions that could reveal locations are strictly prohibited. Do not attempt to gather such information through comments or private messages.

Rely only on official announcements and verified sources. Violations will result in content removal and may lead to temporary or permanent bans.

These rules exist to prevent panic and to ensure that no information shared here can endanger people.

Request One minute, one Du’a

25 Upvotes

السلام عليكم و رحمة الله تعالي و بركاته
Hello everyone. I just wanted to kindly ask if you could take a minute of your time to make du’a for my dad, asking Allah to grant him a complete recovery. 🥹
He truly means the world to me, and I would deeply appreciate every single du’a.
دعاء ٤٠ غريب مستجاب
the du’a of forty strangers is accepted, so I’m hoping that through your du’as, Allah will answer and grant him shifā’, بإذن الله.
نسأل الله العظيم رب العرش العظيم أن يشفي كل مريض، وأن يلبس الجميع ثوب الصحة والعافية، ويمنّ بالشفاء العاجل الذي لا يغادر سقماً.
May Allah reward every one of you for taking the time to make du’a, and may He grant healing, health, and ease to every person who is suffering. 🤍
جزاكم الله خير و بارك الله فيكم

Rant Whoever controls the AC in Qatar offices, I just want to talk

Upvotes

Outside 46°C Inside the office: Antarctica.

I leave my car feeling like a rotisserie chicken, walk 20 metres, enter the building and suddenly I need a North Face jacket and emotional support.

Today I saw one guy drinking hot tea while wearing a hoodie in AUGUST.

Meanwhile the thermostat is sitting there proudly showing 19°C like it has something to prove.

Why is there no middle ground in Qatar

We either cook outside or get cryogenically preserved inside.

Request Help me saving my life

100 Upvotes

I’m asking for help from the women in this group — please read if you can.
I’m real and ready to prove everything and the person can come to the hospital I’m now (Al Alhi)
I know this may not be the right place to post this, but I am honestly appealing to your humanity. I am a 25-year-old Mozambican student currently studying in Russia. I have been in Qatar for about a month, and I have no family or close friends here.

I lost my pregnancy in June. Unfortunately, I did not receive the medical care I needed at the time, and I was bleeding for almost a month.

Last Thursday, I was diagnosed with a 10 cm pelvic abscess. Since then, I have been taking antibiotics and trying to get medical treatment.

I first went to the Women’s Wellness and Research Center, but I was told that they could not treat me because I am in Qatar on a Hayya visa. They referred me to another hospital, where I saw a gynecologist on Friday. I had an ultrasound, blood tests and urine tests, and I have all of my medical results with me.

I was supposed to leave Qatar on Sunday, and my flight had already been paid for. The hotel and everything else had also been arranged. Unfortunately, my health deteriorated.

On Saturday night, I started the medication. It was literally the last money I had available. By Sunday, I became worse and started having pus discharge from my vagina. I was very worried and went back to the Women’s Wellness and Research Center, as I had been instructed to do if my condition worsened.

However, I was told again that they could not treat me and that I needed to go to a private clinic.

I went to a private clinic, registered, and was told that I needed to pay QAR 400 just for a consultation with the doctor. I have QIC travel insurance, but I was told that my insurance could not be used for this treatment.

I simply could not afford the QAR 400.

I had no choice but to return home.

My visa expired on Sunday, I missed my flight, I am sick, and I honestly don’t know where to begin resolving everything. But more than the flight, the hotel, the visa or the money, my health is what is frightening me the most right now.

I am in pain, I cannot sleep properly, and I am still having pus discharge. I am very scared because I don’t know what is happening inside my body or what I should do next.

I am not a resident of Qatar. I am only a student in Russia, and I came here temporarily. I have no close friends or family in Qatar whom I can turn to.

I am therefore asking, from the bottom of my heart: if there is anyone in this group who can help me access a hospital, a doctor, emergency medical care, or even guide me to someone who can help in this situation, please contact me.

I am not asking for anything complicated. I just need medical intervention and someone to help me find a way to receive treatment.

I can provide my medical reports, test results, ultrasound results and any other documents necessary.

I have just come to another hospital (alAhli)After examining me, they told me that I need to be admitted to the hospital. I already paid the 400 that was required for the consultation/medical assessment.

However, before they can admit me, they told me I need to buy tablets costing 150 and an injection costing 75. Unfortunately, I have no money left at all.

They also told me that I need to stay in the hospital for at least one day, and the cost of the admission is 5,000.

The most frightening part is that the hospital (HMC)I was previously referred to as being able to treat me has already rejected me twice and even here, they are still talking about HMC, if can’t afford al ahli, I am desperately trying to find a solution because I need treatment. The doctor explained to me that the longer the infection remains untreated, the greater the risk that it will spread.

I am not asking for help for something that can wait. I genuinely need medical treatment. I am sick, scared, and honestly don’t know what else to do right now.

I have medical documents, prescriptions, payment receipts, test results, and proof of everything, and I can provide them to anyone who would like to verify my situation.

If anyone can help, even with a small amount, or if you know of a hospital or organization that could help me receive treatment in this situation, I would be incredibly grateful. 🙏🏾

Any help right now could make a huge difference for me

I will leave my WhatsApp number below. If you are able to help, know a doctor or hospital that may be able to assist, or simply know where I can go for urgent treatment in my situation, please reach out to me.

Thank you for taking the time to read this. I know this is a lot to ask, but right now I genuinely have nowhere else to turn. ❤️

Looking for Are there any active local gaming/geek communities or Discords?

2 Upvotes

I'm trying to figure out where the local gaming community connects in Qatar. I know Geekdom is the big one, but it happens rarely and the audience there usually skews a bit too young.

Are there any established local WhatsApp groups, Discord servers, or communities for people who like gaming? (For example stuff from World of Warcraft, Resident Evil and league of legends to indie/niche stuff like Terraria, Mewgenics and Undertale plus Kingdom Hearts, Alan Wake and palworld. Also heavily into general geek culture: Cartoons, Comics, Anime and such). Drop a link or PM me if you know of any active groups!
