If its a residence visa then yes, no issue.

However, I would advise you to come back earlier as nowadays you never know what happens with flight schedules. If you get stuck outside and visa expires, then that is it. You will have to get employer to apply for new one and that takes time. There are many stories of people in this situation posting on these forums.

Just to make things clear, you mean i will not experience any issue to return in bahrain or the bahrain immigration will not put me on hold despite the fact that my visa is only valid for just 1 week upon entering Bahrain? Thanks.
