Wadi Jallal (ar|وَادِي جَلاَّل|Wādī Jallāl) is a village located in the Al Wakrah municipality of Qatar. It is located approximately 37km (23miles) from the capital Doha.
As the area is typified by a wadi (dry river-valley) which would flood during heavy rains, it was named "Wadi Jallal"; the second constituent being derived from the Arabic "jalaa", meaning "to wash away".[2]
