Abu Sidrah (Arabic: أَبُو سِدْرَة, romanized: Abū Sidrah) is a village in northwest Qatar located in the municipality of Al-Shahaniya.[2][3] According to the Ministry of Environment, there were about five households in the village in 2014.[4]
It is accessible through Al Jemailiya Road. The settlements of Al Suwaihliya, to the north, and Al Jemailiya, to the south, are nearby.[3]
Etymology
"Abu" in Arabic means "father", and is commonly used as a prefix for geographical features. The "sidrah" component refers to Ziziphus nummularia, a tree that frequently occurs around the rawda (depression) which the village is centered around.[3]
