Al Mirqab (Arabic: المرقاب; also referred to as Fereej Al Mirqab) is a district in Qatar, located in the municipality of Ad Dawhah.

[2][3] Together with As Salatah, it makes up Qatar's Zone 18, with a population of 692 people.

[4] An Arabic word, mirqab is derived from "muraqabah", which in English translates to "watching".

[3] This name was, in turn, derived from Mirqab ash-Sharqi, translating to "eastern watchtower", a historic watchtower built here in the 20th century to survey the sea and identify incoming ships.

Once completed, it will be part of Doha Metro's Gold Line.
