Halat Bu Maher (Arabic: حالة بو ماهر), sometimes abbreviated to simply "Al Hala" (Arabic: الحالة), is a neighbourhood of Muharraq, Bahrain. It used to be a separate island, but after coastal expansion via land reclamation and dredging, the island has merged with Muharraq Island, and the former settlement integrated as a neighbourhood of Muharraq city.
