Les Âl Thānī appartiennent à la tribu des Tamīm, qui a migré depuis l'est de l'Arabie centrale vers la péninsule du Qatar et est devenue une famille dirigeante dominante au milieu du XIXe siècle. Le deuxième cheikh, Qāsim ibn Muhammad (1878-1913), pour qui ce Coran a été réalisé, est considéré comme le fondateur du Qatar. Il était un chef militaire, un juge et un érudit. Né vers 1827, il dirige les affaires du pays à partir de 1876. Au début de son règne, il s’est consacré à l’unité du peuple qatarien en renforçant le sentiment d’appartenance nationale. Sur le plan extérieur, Cheikh Jassim était un partisan convaincu et le plus grand défenseur du califat islamique malgré les pressions exercées. Ses relations avec l'autorité ottomane devenant plus enracinées, il reçut le titre de «kaimakam», grade militaire et administratif. Il a par la suite reçu un autre titre honorifique supérieur de "Kapuji-bashi", en reconnaissance de son autorité de facto et de sa direction des tribus qatari. Il est considéré comme le fondateur de l’État du Qatar en raison de son rôle historique dans la consolidation de l’indépendance. The Āl Thānī are from the Tamīm tribe, which migrated eastward from central Arabia to the Qatar peninsula and emerged as a dominant ruling family in the mid-19th century. The second sheikh, Qāsim ibn Muḥammad (1878–1913), is considered Qatar’s founder. He was a military leader, judge and scholar. Born around 1827, he run the affairs of the country since 1876. In the early years of his reign, he devoted himself to uniting the Qatari people. At the external level, Sheikh Jassim was a staunch supporter and most defender of the Islamic Caliphate despite the pressure he came through. His relationship with the Ottoman authority became more entrenched , so he was granted the title of “kaimakam”, a military and administrative rank. He was later given another higher honorary title of "Kapuji-bashi", in recognition of his de facto authority and leadership of the Qatari tribes. He is considered the founder of the State of Qatar in recognition to his historical role in consolidating independence.
