Dear,
Really you are in great trouble. You can not do any thing with this saudi people. just keep the decision on God. He knows better.
Thanks

Resign as soon as you can, to give them time to find a replacement.

Tobagi

Thank you so much,I really appreciate your answer

Tobagi

Thank you,please is there any suggestion you can give to me on how to resign?

I think the best way would be to go to the decision maker and tell him: "My mother passed away on [date]. I would like to go to pay my respects. Can you help me?"

Tobagi

Thank you so much!

Hello, 

U R very very lucky because u have internet access & reading this. Many foreigners have wasted lives like u r going through.

Now follow these three steps urgently.

1) Runaway of saudi if u want to continue living

2) Runaway of saudi if u want to continue living

3) Runaway of saudi if u want to continue living

Hello,
They may not allow you to go if you tell them that you lost your mother.
I was in the situations like you taking care of an old, disabled and sick woman. When my stepmother died and i informed my employer about it, she refused to let me go.
Instead she said " who will take care of my mother if you go". I ran away from their house to my embassy, from there i was taken to deportation centre and i spent just a week there before coming back to my country.
JUST RUN AWAY TO YOUR EMBASSY.
