There is no masonic lodges in that country which you can access. Freemasonry as a organization does not exist in UAE.

It will tell you what you need to know.
If you took the time to use the search feature, rather than ask to have somebody do the work for you, you would have gotten this:
Saudi Arabia Secrete Lodges?
Hello, I am well aware that freemasonry is banned in Saudi Arabia, however, there has to be a way to join and become a freemason. Please, if you can help with any info you know, I’d appreciate that. I‘m located in Riyadh.

yes, you should just give up if in Baghdad.
That illegality alone should tell you that you should NOT pursue this interest within your country!
Assistance with what? You already know Masonry is illegal in your country. What possible assistance could you need?!?!? Telling you you'd be foolish to pursue something that is illegal? I hope you realize this very request would prevent you from being considered! We are a moral, law abiding organization!
Yes, unless you move to a country where it's legal!
What about it?
BTW - Since you have classified yourself as "female", you have another challenge in that you have to find an organization that allows females.
2be1ask1 seems like an incomplete statement, without a friend or relative in the lodge asking 1 falls on deaf ears
That's absolutely false. A great deal of the applicants these days likely do not know any members of the Lodge when they first contacted it.
While I don’t like the acronym, that isn’t my experience. Indeed, many grand lodges take great effort to reach those who don’t have contacts in a lodge.
but the point is the petition is rejected due only to not having a friend in the lodge
if they make a great effort to reach those who don't know anyone in the lodge why was I told nobody knows me and the process ended
And the follow up point is: As much as your point might be true for a hand full of lodges, the vast majority of USA lodges have investigation committees that provide feedback to the general membership as to whether the applicant is a good fit or not.
And they do not have to know ANYONE in the lodge to be both considered and voted in.
Have you ever petitioned?
IN what country are you located?
That is not my experience either.
