    FaceTime doesn't appear as a separate app on the iPhone, instead you can access it by going into your contacts, selecting one of them, and then tapping the FaceTime button on it - if you don't the FaceTime button then check that Settings > General > Restrictions > FaceTime isn't 'off'

    You've checked Settings > General > Restrictions to see if it's hidden.

     

    If not then this page has a note against the Middle East heading : iPhone: Wireless carrier support and features

     

    5. FaceTime may be unavailable if your device originates from this region and becomes unlocked or is used in another country.
