Frequently asked questions
Short answers about how RAW works. For a full walkthrough, read How to play.
- What is RAW?
- RAW (Raudhah Arena Worldwide) is a mobile-first spiritual-RPG that turns sending Selawat and reciting daily zikir into a shared, worldwide arena with weekly country leagues and light battle modes.
- Is RAW an act of worship?
- No. RAW is a habit tracker and a game built around worship. The taps, counts, badges and leagues are motivational tools — they have no religious weight of their own. Please treat the app with adab.
- Do I need an account to play?
- You can start as a guest, but a free account is required for cloud sync, the weekly league, Clash battles, and long-term streak rewards.
- How does the weekly country league work?
- Every Selawat tap contributes to your country's total for the week. The league board polls fresh totals every couple of minutes and resets every Friday at 18:00 UTC.
- What are zikir missions?
- Zikir missions swap the Selawat tap for one of five zikir — Tasbih, Tahlil, Istighfar, Hamd or Takbir. Each has its own recitation, projectile, and passive skill in the battle modes.
- How does the Solat streak work?
- Check in inside each prayer's local window (GPS-verified against your city's azan schedule) to grow the streak. Missing a prayer breaks it unless you redeem a qada with coins or a rewarded ad. Milestone NFTs unlock at 42, 100 and 365 days.
- What is RAW Guardian?
- A persistent solo gauntlet: each level is 5 monster waves plus a Warden boss. You keep your progress between sessions, unlock a treasure chest every 5 levels, and earn cosmetic attack skins.
- Do coin purchases give a PvP advantage?
- No. Everything in the store is cosmetic — button skins, auras, and supporter tiers. Battle firepower comes from your actual devotion (daily Selawat + streaks), never from your wallet.
- What do rewarded ads unlock?
- Optional extras: an extra Clash / Guardian / Raid attempt, a qada for a missed prayer, an instant zikir slot, or a step toward a supporter tier. Every rewarded ad also has an equivalent 'pay with coins' option.
- How is my location used?
- Your country flag appears on the league board and your city is used only to fetch the correct azan schedule for prayer-time check-ins. You can change or clear it any time from the Account page.
- What are Guardian NFTs?
- Limited-edition royalty-bearing badges awarded for standout Guardian runs (best 101 / 404 / 777 / 888 / 999 clears). They are cosmetic collectibles, not gameplay boosts.
- How do I contact support?
