His Highness Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani, Emir of Qatar, will visit Jordan tomorrow, Sept. 17, 2025.

During the visit, the Emir will meet with His Majesty King Abdullah II.

This comes after Qatar hosted an Arab-Islamic summit after ‘Israel’s’ unprecedented attack on Doha last week, targeting Hamas leaders.

The emergency summit condemned 'Israel’s' strike on the Qatari capital earlier this month, calling it a “flagrant violation of sovereignty” and a grave threat to regional and international security.

The joint meeting, hosted by Qatari Emir Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani, brought together heads of state and government from the League of Arab States and the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC). Leaders pledged “absolute and unwavering solidarity” with Qatar following the September 9 attack, which struck a residential neighborhood in Doha, damaging schools, nurseries, and housing for international mediation delegations. One Qatari citizen was killed, and several civilians were injured.

In their final communiqué, the leaders held 'Israel' fully responsible, warning that striking a neutral state mediating between warring parties in Gaza represented a dangerous escalation that undermines peace efforts.

“Such aggression against a neutral site for mediation not only violates Qatar’s sovereignty but also undermines international mediation and peace-making efforts,” the statement said.

The summit emphasized that the attack on Qatar should be viewed as an attack on all Arab and Islamic nations, pledging to support any measures Doha takes to safeguard its sovereignty and citizens. Leaders also condemned Israel’s broader policies, citing what they called “acts of genocide, ethnic cleansing, starvation, and blockade”, and warned that continued impunity had emboldened Israeli aggressions across the region.

The gathering reiterated support for a Palestinian state based on the 1967 borders with East Jerusalem as its capital and reaffirmed the Hashemite custodianship over holy sites in Jerusalem. Leaders also backed reconstruction plans for Gaza and urged international donors to contribute at a planned Cairo conference once a ceasefire is reached.

The communiqué rejected any attempt to justify the attack on Qatar and dismissed 'Israeli' threats against other Arab and Islamic states as dangerous provocations. It called on the international community, particularly the UN Security Council, to take concrete steps to hold 'Israel' accountable and to enforce a timetable for ending the occupation of Palestinian territories.

The summit closed with gratitude to Qatar for hosting the meeting and for what leaders described as its “civilized and responsible stance” in the aftermath of the strike. The declaration underscored that any aggression against one state is aggression against all, cementing a unified Arab-Islamic position against the latest escalation.
