You can use aa.com to see if QR is offering AMM-DOH-DUR award flights for when you wish to travel. No log-in is required on aa.com to do an award search. If QR is making award flights available to AA, then they probably are also making them available to their other partners, but you'd need to double-check.
Yes! I see flights on AA for QR for 55k + $148, which is great! I also saw that they have flights for Etihad Airways, which I know is a partner airway for AMEX, although I don't see the same flights on Ethihads website as I do on AA. Is it wise to transfer AMEX points to Etihad, Etihad to AA, and the purchase tickets?

Thanks for the AA tip though! This could save me!!
