Hello everyone! I'm looking for a mechanic that specializes in Mazda cars. I've searched this sub and found out about a mechanic named "shebu". I got his number and contacted him, but he has already retired and went home to his country. If anyone knows a mechanic that works with Mazda cars pls let me know.

Considering ordering a few reps from taobao (big name brands like ralph lauren, Adidas, etc). If anyone has done the same, what's the chance of my items getting seized? Help Is appreciated

I’ve recently moved into a nice 2-bedroom apartment and I’m thinking of finding a female flatmate for the second room.

Ideally I’d love to find another woman around my age (30s), working professional, easygoing and sociable. Someone who’d actually be nice to live with rather than just two strangers sharing an apartment.

For those of you who’ve found flatmates in Bahrain, where did you look? Are there any good Facebook/WhatsApp groups, websites, communities, or other places where you’re more likely to find genuine female professionals?

I’d also prefer not to advertise it through my personal Instagram/social media, so somewhere I can post relatively anonymously would be ideal.

Any recommendations (or places I should definitely avoid) would be appreciated!

As Salam Alaikum

I have severe OCD, and while it affects many areas of my life, the one thing I don't want it to ruin is my worship and prayer.

Before salah, I spend a lot of time trying to figure out the exact qiblah direction, often checking it repeatedly because I'm afraid I might be wrong. Then I worry about whether a strand of hair is showing, whether any skin is exposed, whether my feet or hands are covered properly, and countless other details.

During prayer, I sometimes restart because I think I did something "wrong." For example, if my mouth was open before saying "Allahu Akbar," I feel like that isn't part of salah, so I start over. Sometimes I become confused about whether I performed one sujood or two. Other times, when getting up from sujood, I start analyzing exactly how I pushed myself up, whether my hands were folded, spread out, or whether I used my knuckles, and then I either perform sujood as-sahw or repeat the prayer entirely.

Wudhu is also difficult. If I accidentally do something extra or feel uncertain about whether I washed a part correctly, I often feel compelled to start all over again.

It's becoming exhausting. Salah is fard, and I love worshipping Allah, but I don't want prayer to become something that feels unbearable because of these constant doubts.

I also struggle when the adhan is called. I feel guilty doing anything else afterward, even though there is still plenty of time before the prayer time ends. If I send a message, make a phone call, or continue a task, I become terrified that Allah will be angry with me. Sometimes I even worry that because the message remains stored in someone's phone or appears in a call log, Allah will continue punishing me for delaying prayer and will never forgive me.

I know some of these thoughts probably sound irrational, but they feel very real to me. I can't currently afford therapy, so I'm looking for advice from anyone who has dealt with religious OCD/scrupulosity or similar experiences or an Islamic expert.

How do I cope with these doubts? How can I stop restarting everything? And does Allah forgive someone who is struggling with OCD like this?

During my car hunt with person to person sale (not agents or installment car companies), i get typical "judging my pockets" questions like "what you work? Is it company? Where you work?" Instead of asking my name or anything. Its very annoying and i know these questions are used to put me in some brackets.. asking advice on how to tackle or dismiss these questions. I usually just dont answer and change topic because i dont like people adjusting their prices higher based on how i look or where i work.

Salam alaikum /Bahrain,

I'm an expat looking for work in Bahrain. I've been here for over a year and a half.

I'm an experienced IT Professional who has worked with managed service providers in IT for the past 11 years outside of Bahrain. My last official position was Senior System Engineer and Senior Network Engineer.

I understand the situation in the region is making companies hesitant to hire anyone. I'm just looking for a break as it's been incredibly frustrating.

Yes, I've updated my CV. I'm customizing it for each company and position. I'm even physical going to the companies to follow up just in case my email/application failed to make it past their filters.

If anyone knows anything or can help, please send me a DM.

Hello, im entering the match this year in IM! Would love to connect and seek help!

Hi all,

Sorry for writing in English - I’m way better in English that Arabic.

I’m a Bahraini national who is about to start a job with a private employer in Dubai. I went to uni abroad then worked there too so never previously worked in Bahrain and have never paid into Bahrain SIO, so I don’t currently have a Bahrain SIO insurance number.

The employer seems super confused about registering me for SIO via GCC Unified Insurance Protection Extension System so I’m trying to understand how it actually works in practice for a Bahraini working in the UAE. They want me to get an SIO number from Bahrain but the SIO are saying the employer has to apply for it via the UAE service GPSSA.

A few specific questions:
- Has anyone here actually gone through this as a Bahraini working in the UAE?
- Did your UAE employer know how to register you, or did you have to guide them through the process?
-How did you get your Bahrain SIO insurance number if you’d never previously contributed to SIO?
-Did GPSSA/UAE or Bahrain SIO issue the number as part of the registration?
-What documents were you asked to provide?

I’m particularly interested in real-world experiences from Bahrainis or other GCC nationals working in Dubai/UAE, rather than just the official rules, because the rules seem reasonably clear but the practical implementation seems less so.

Thanks in advance — any experiences, particularly from people who have gone through the registration recently, would be really helpful.

As requested by fellow redditors of Bahrain

Just wanted to say hello to everyone in this CRAZY heat. It’s at least +45C in the day all the way till about 5-6PM in Bahrain. And at night it’s super humid and really tough physically.

How do you guys do it, the heat is exhausting honestly.

Time’s running so fast, it feels like just a couple of months ago it was the new year

I’d like to know your experience, how was it, what was the layout of the exam, etc.

I’m an expat currently pregnant and my cravings are hitting hard! I’m really missing snacks like:

- Green/raw mango (not round one)

- Sand‑roasted peanuts

- Peanuts with shell to boil and eat

Could you please suggest shops, markets, or local places in Bahrain where I can buy these snacks or ingredients? Even tips on Indian grocery stores that stock them would be super helpful.

Hey everyone,
I've been trying to sell a pair of Sony
WH-1000XM6 headphones that I imported from Amazon. They retail locally in Bahrain for around BHD 180.
The headphones themselves are in mint/perfect condition-l've only used them a couple of times over two weeks and cleaned them regularly. All original wires and accessories are included. The only minor cosmetic issue is a small oil mark on the outer fabric carrying case.
I originally listed them for BHD 140 on Dubizzle / OpenSooq, but I've been getting flooded with absurd offers like BHD 50. They've been sitting listed for a month now with no serious buyers, and I don't want to keep them unused while the value drops.

A few questions for the community:

1. Is BHD 110 - 120 a fair price for these in the local second-hand market given the case flaw?

2. Where else in Bahrain can I sell premium tech at a realistic price without getting lowballed?

3. If anyone is looking for a pair, feel free to DM me.

Nice morning in bahrain was with Humidity
