1) Yes. Leave means resign i.e. you want to leave Bahrain and not transfer locally

2) Yes if you have your passport

3) If they got you a maid visa then yes you are under contract. Otherwise, the Jordan contract does not apply

Then you are not bound to your employer in any shape or form. And if you have your passport, you can just leave.
