The author, Sabera, meaning ` patience`, was born and brought up in the island of Mauritius. She completed all her Higher Education and Academic achievements in the United Kingdom where she acquired her Teaching certificates and a Master in Islamic Studies. She feels very privileged to have been taught by the late Dr. Zaki Badawi (May Allah grant him paradise) and to have studied at his Muslim College. She is grateful to have learned about the Islamic religion which she was born into and studied for her Master’s degree in the United Kingdom (UK) before going to the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA) where she spent 7 awful years. She has written this book to warn others not to fall into the same trap which she herself did. As the saying goes ` Prevention is better than Cure`. The only thing which kept her sane, strong and safe, was her faith and belief in her merciful Creator, Allah. Chapter 8 is dedicated to her practice and supplication which has helped her to be free from the ruthless and merciless exploiters in KSA. She used only her 5 daily prayers, her holy book, the Qur`an, and all the religious supplications which are mentioned at the back of this book to achieve her goal and nothing else. After her return to the UK, she feels she has her sanity, her freedom of speech and most of all her freedom to practice her religion in peace Alhamdulillah (All praise be to Allah). The feeling is unexplainable, one can only experience it. That is why she is sharing her 7 years of experiences in the KSA because she can now speak and write about the real facts of life one faces every day in KSA.
