Al Muhannadi

The Al Mohannadi (Arabic: المهندي) tribe is an Arab Tribal Confederacy based primarily in the Arab states of the Persian Gulf, especially in Qatar. Being a tribal confederation that emerged in the coastal town of Al-Khor ruling the region before Qatar gained its independence in 1971, the larger portion of its members belong to the Bani Hajer tribe (Qahtanite Tribe). It is also known as Al-Mahanda (Arabic: المهاندة). The leading family of the tribe was the Al-Ibrahim family. The other families are Al-Bin Ali, Al-Misnid, Al-Shugari, Al-Matwi of Al-Shugari, Al-Qashasha, Al-Hassan, Al-Baduh, and Al-Bin Matar.
