Barahat Al Jufairi (Arabic: براحة الجفيري|Brāḥat al-Jufaīry) is a district named after the Al Jufairi tribe, a highly prominent family in Qatar. Barahat Al Jufairi is a city located in the municipality of Doha.[2] Historically, it was used as a central marketplace.
Al Ahli SC, Qatar's oldest existing sports club, was headquartered in the district at the time of its founding in 1950.[3]
The settlement was named after a member of the Al Jufairi family, the most prevalent tribe in the area at the time of its naming.[4] In Arabic, the term baraha is used to refer to a public space.[5]
The house of Mohammed Said Nasrallah, considered to be a local landmark, is located in the city. Constructed around the late 19th to early 20th century, the house has had a long history of owners. The house is modeled in typical Arabian fashion and measures 21 m by 27 m. There are eleven rooms adjacent to a large courtyard. It contains wind towers, a rarity in Qatar during the period it was constructed. Its opulent ornamental features are also distinctive when compared to those of other local structures.[6] Qatar's Department of Tourism and Antiquities restored the house in 1981.[7]
The former residence of Ismail Mandani is one of the most luxurious 20th-century buildings in Doha and is considered a good example of vernacular architecture. Having been constructed in 1925, the building is two-storey and features costly ornamental decorations. The building is composed of two main structures and a trapezoidal courtyard. There are 15 rooms at ground floor and 4 on the first level. Traditional construction materials were used for the building.[8]
