Qatar is another name for opportunity. Our whole history appears
like a last effort of divine providence on behalf of the human race.

of the Arabian peninsula. Arabic is the official language, and most
Qataris speak a dialect of Gulf Arabic similar to that spoken in
surrounding states. Islam is the official religion, and Qataris are
largely Sunni Muslims. Qataris are largely urban duelers; less than 1
percent of the population lives in rural areas. This being due to
Qatar’s location in the world. It being in the middle-east and being a
great and important Arab country.

Life in Doha is influenced by a mixture of Arab customs and
modernity. Customs of Qatar and the way of life there are
influenced by the location of Qatar and by the religion of Islam.
Men wear the white THOBE which is the national dress while
women mostly wear the black ABAYA and HIJAB (head scarf). The
people used to live in tents as Bedouin then they progressed and
developed to make such cities. The people are conservative and
they enjoy their privacy. Being a neighboring country of many Arab
and Muslim countries, Qatar also has may similarities with these
countries.
