Jariyan al Batnah (Arabic: جريان الباطنة‎‎) is a former municipality of Qatar. Its territory was split between the municipalities of Al Wakrah and Al Rayyan in 2004. All of Jariyan al Batnah's districts recorded in the 2004 census – Al Karaana, Rawdat Rashed, Sawda Natheel and Abu Samra – were distributed to the municipality of Al Rayyan thereafter. The Persian Gulf borders Jariyan al Batnah in its west and its southeast. It used to be the only municipality to border foreign territory: Saudi Arabia's Ash Sharqiyah province.
