The order of succession as the Ruler of Qatar is determined by appointments within the Al Thani family.
The current Emir Hamad bin Khalifa Al Thani (Arabic: الشيخ حمد بن خليفة آل ثاني) has appointed his fourth son as Heir Apparent Sheikh Tamim Bin Hamad Al Thani (Arabic: الشيخ تميم بن حمد آل ثاني) on August 8, 2003, after his older brother Sheikh Jasim bin Hamad Al-Thani renounced his rights in his favour.
