Al Kilaibein is the sixth among summer stars and the last in Jamrat al Q’aith. The star of Suhail will appear in the middle of Al Kilaibein, during which the temperatures will slowly begin to go down.

“The star of Suhail is projected to appear above Qatar’s skies on August 24,” Dr Bashir Marzouk, an astronomer at the Qatar Calendar House (QCH), was recently quoted as saying.
