Al-Adhbah (; also spelled as Al Athbah) is a village in Qatar, located in the municipality of Ash Shamal. It previously served as Bedouin camping ground and had 5 masonry wells in the early 1900s.

==Etymology== In Arabic, ʽadhbah translates to "sweet". It was given this name because its fresh water was of good quality, with little salinity.
