Understand that Qatar will have 5days of public holiday during Eid Al-Fitr. Will all the shops and malls be close during this one week?
Any forms of information for this one week celebration would be very greatful.

You are missunderstood! The 5 days holiday is only for the employees working in Govt. sector. for the private sector there are 2 days official holidays and the malls and shops will never be closed as these days are the peak time for their business.
