How and through whom am I able to send cash to Cape Town? I am still waiting on temporary iqama and am not in possession of a bank account as yet?

In order to send money through official channels you need an iqama. There are many money transfer outlets that can do this, with your case try to check with Western Union.

I know this might be trivial, but you could give it to someone you trust who could deposit the money in their account to have it sent to the desired destination.
