Eglat Faisal

Eglat Faisal (Arabic: عقلة فيصل) is a district in south-west Qatar, located in the municipality of Al Rayyan.

[3][4] Nearby settlements include Abu Samra to the south and Umm Al Jaratheem to the north-east.

[4] "Eglat" originates from the Arabic "oqlat", meaning "shallow well".

This well was so important that its name was extended to the entire area, which also included a farm.
