There aren’t any English words that don't have a "u" after the "q".
In other languages this is not true; al-Qaeda is an example of this. To english speakers the "q" is pronounced as "k."
According to Wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Qis
Another word is "Qi" Qi, "also commonly spelled ch'i (in Wade-Giles romanization) or ki (in romanized Japanese)."
I can make a long list of arabic and other words, but I am not going to Spam you with that. As far as the game Scrabble is concerned Qis and Qat are not English words. You could consider "pro-qid-pro," but that is a latin phrase used by lawyers.

Qaid. I don't know what it means, but my computerized scrabble game used to accept that amongst others that I forgot. It had a definition, so I guess it is a word.
