Jabal Qada'ah[2] (Arabic: جبل قداعة, romanized: Jabal Kidā'ah), also known as Jabal Al Aḩqab,[3] is a mountain located in the Hajar Mountains range, northeast of the United Arab Emirates, in the Emirate of Ras Al Khaimah.
Its summit has an altitude of 1,375 m (4,511 ft), a significant prominence of 460 m (1,510 ft) and a topographic isolation of 4.36 km (2.71 mi),[1] so the elongated and solitary silhouette of the mountain, in the form of a plateau, stands out and is perfectly visible even from a long distance.
