Scientific reason why it is telling a pregnant lady should not go out during eclips, there are chances of dangerours rays like uv, will get advantage during the eclips. So pregnant lady, babies,new grouth and naked eyes are prone to angerous rays. Better don't take chance. Try to avoid going out during eclips.

Some of the responses about pregnant women & the eclipse are absolutely ridiculous.

Dr. Thornton has done significant research on the effects of eclipse. In one of his experiments he proved that dogs rejected food while an eclipse was in progress.

Just as the scriptures propagate the prohibition of food during the eclipse, they also prohibit viewing the eclipse while it is in progress. Also, a pregnant woman should never see an eclipse in the absence of a cloth in front of her eyes.

It's just an old belief that when pregnant women see the eclipse, their child born will have some kind of defects.

If you go by the map then Doha will be in darkness with no sun to see the eclipse!

The countries to witness the path of the Moon's umbral shadow are India and Nepal, Bangladesh, Bhutan, Myanmar and China.

In India, the shadow sweeps over the cities of Surat, Indore, Bhopal, Varanasi and Patna. Travelling across Bhutan, the eclipse will be visible in Nepal, Bangladesh, and Myanmar, before reaching China at 06:35 IST

I guess somehow you can see part of it from Doha. Complete Solar eclips will be visible mostly in INDIA and CHINA in cities like Surat, Vadodara, Bhopal, Varanasi, Patna, Dinajpur, Chengdu, Chongqing, Wuhan, Hefei, Hangzhou and Shanghai, as well as over the Three Gorges Dam.

Cheers !!

No, it will be seen in India, and South East Asia. Middle East it is not visible.

Even then pregnant ladies should not go out during Eclipse especially if residing in Asian continent.

Hope the info is useful.
