Goverrmient and tnerefore tnere is no ground for expecting tuat tne
arguments stated will cause any change or modification in tne course
which Government have considered it advisable for you to adopt as
regards affairs of tne mainland.
The reports I have recently received induce me indeed to
think tnat the state of affairs generally snows an increased
necessity for avoidance of all int erf er ence on the mainland - wnet nor
at 20 bar ah or any ot ner place/no exception is made/ and this course
I have no hesitation in again urging on you as tne most friendly

About this item
- Content
File contains correspondence related to hostilities that occurred between the forces of Shaikh Abdullah bin Qassim Al Thani of Qatar and the Al Naim tribe that took place in June and July 1937.
At this time, the Al Naim tribe was allied to the Al Khalifa ruling family of Bahrain who claimed Zubarah 18th-century town located 105 km from Doha. as a part of their own territory (the family had been based there before their conquest of Bahrain in 1783). The British authorities did not recognise the Al Khalifa's claim to Zubarah 18th-century town located 105 km from Doha. and did not intervene on their behalf. Hostilities ended in July 1937 and Shaikh Rashid bin Muhammad, Chief of the Al Naim tribe, agreed to recognise the rule of the Al Thani family over Zubarah 18th-century town located 105 km from Doha. .
The file also contains a map of Qatar (folio 164) and four aerial photographs of Zubarah 18th-century town located 105 km from Doha. (folios 160-163).
