In the 1950s, Qatar had no public schools. Children studied in informal kuttab classes, memorizing the Quran under a single teacher. Then Sheikh Abdullah bin Qasim Al Thani invited a Palestinian educator, Ibrahim al-Nabhani, to Doha. Al-Nabhani's boys' school, opened in 1952, grew from thirty students to hundreds within a year. But girls were excluded until 1956, when the first girls' school opened with just twelve students and fierce opposition from conservative families. Lucas and Luna explore how the Al Thani ruler balanced modernization with tradition, the role of the British Political Agency in funding education, and how this first generation of educated Qataris became the civil servants who built the oil state. They also look at the 1950s literacy rate — over 90% of Qataris could not read — and how the discovery of oil at Dukhan paid for textbooks, salaries, and school buildings. This episode traces the quiet revolution that turned a pearl-diving community into a nation that would one day host the world's best universities. #Qatar #Education #IbrahimAlNabhani #SheikhAbdullah #DukhanOil #Kuttab #GirlsEducation #1950s #Doha #BritishPoliticalAgency #AlThani #OilRevenue #Literacy #Modernization #History #FexingoHistory #MiddleEastHistory #QatarHistory Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
