Premarital sex legality in Bahrain?

Concerns about premarital sex penalties, given Saudi Arabia's strict laws, prompted this question about Bahrain's legal stance.

Bahrain's laws regarding premarital sex are less stringent than Saudi Arabia's, but it's still not something openly condoned. While there isn't a specific, easily defined penalty, expect potential repercussions focusing on public morality and social norms, rather than a codified criminal charge. It's a grey area, and discretion is advised. Basically, keep it on the down-low.

Thanks for the nuanced answer. That makes sense – the "grey area" part is what I was struggling to grasp. So it's more about avoiding scandal than facing a specific jail sentence, then? That's helpful context.
