This article is about a Qatari settlement. For the Palestinian village, see Umm al-Kilab.

Umm al Kilab is a settlement in Qatar, located in the municipality of Ash Shamal. Owing to its propensity for vegetation, various farms are based in the area.[1]

In the past, its inhabitants excavated sections of its depressed terrain to create small reservoirs that would fill during rainy season.[2]
