Per international travelling rules, you must have at least 6 months of validity left on your passport to board your plane.

As far as i know if Im not mistaken, 6 mos validity is a must when you are going out the country of origin but its ok if returning back since its your own country.you can just renew it there after arrival.

You can travel to your own country and back to Saudi until 1 day expiry of the passport provided it's a direct flight, some airlines may cause an issue for that.

There's no problem in your passport at all...Saudi Immigration will allow you to travel back home provided that you have a valid exit-reentry Visa or Final Exit Visa.
Then once you're back home, renew your passport right away in DFA Aseana, no appointment needed. Just go straight in OFW lane and process your renewal and pay an expedite fee. In just 1 week, you will have your new passport. But keep your old passport with you. KSA immigration will encode your new passport details to update your MOI information. I hope these information I shared will help you. Happy Holidays!!!
