My husband's son and family have gone to Qatar for several years for work. I have tried sending a small parcel but it has failed to arrive. Has anyone any experience of reliable methods for sending small parcels to Arab countries? Any ideas gratefully received!

Did you send it tracked?

The parcels I sent airmail to Australia took weeks to arrive as they got stuck at Heathrow Cargo Depot then at various locations, apparently due to the Covid restrictions.

It costs more to track parcels but it's worth it sometimes.

I would suggest you try one of the international couriers, assuming it’s the PO who have failed to deliver.
