Qatar utilized a different national anthem from 1954 to 1996. Written like other typical Arab fanfare anthems, this national anthem is possibly one of, if not the shortest national anthem (in terms of music) to ever exist, with only 11 measures. It also has no lyrics. It's composition is possibly of Indian origin.[1]
