About Noof Al Maadeed
Noof Al Maadeed (Arabic: نوف المعاضيد; born 19 October 1998) is a Qatari women's rights activist. She gained international attention in 2019 after documenting her escape from Qatar on TikTok after allegedly experiencing years of domestic violence and restricted women's rights. She lived in the United Kingdom until 2021 as an asylum seeker. On 30 September that year, she returned to Qatar after reassurances from the government that she would be safe and that her rights would be respected. In March 2023 she posted videos detailing limitations and abuse she has faced, including travel bans and blackmail. The Gulf Centre for Human Rights has said that she "has not been heard from publicly since", but that in mid-2024 it heard that she is "alive but banned from talking to the media or expressing her views on social media networks".
