The name "Lehsiniya" originates from the Arabic word "hassan", which translates to "beautiful". It earned this name because of the abundant vegetation found in the area.[1]
Lehsiniya is located in central Qatar. It forms the northernmost boundary of the southern sector of the central belt region. To the south and west of this area, there is a notable change in the landscape, gradually increasing in elevation.[2]
To the south of the village is a shooting range for the Qatar Amiri Guard.[3] A large farm is also maintained in the area.[1]
