Rawda Essentials
From downloading the Nusuk app, to registering and booking a successful Rawda appointment…we’ve got you covered!
FAQ:
Q: Is it true you can only book a Rawda appointment once a year?
A: Correct! The nusuk app uses your passport number, NOT your visa number for the appointment. so even if you get a new visa, your passport number is the name. unless you have multiple different passports, you can book a Rawda appointment once a year..HOWEVER…there is a new feature that allows you to book multiple time WHILE YOU ARE IN VICINITY of Masjid Al-Nabawi via the INSTANT tract(you must enable geo location for the app)
Q: Can I cancel my Rawda appointment and reschedule it?
A: YES! as long as your appointed time did not pass, you can easily reschedule it!
Q: I see a countdown to confirm my Rawdah attendance…BUT I CANT click on anything, what do I do??
Install and register in Nusuk
Make the account setup its own first step so users are not hunting through a long guide.
Check appointment availability
Availability changes. This guide should support alert subscriptions in Phase 2 instead of making static timing promises.
Prepare party and children details
Keep children notes prominent because it is a common edge case in the source guide.
Plan arrival and crowd buffer
Connect this guide to Medina hotel maps, gates, and courtyard information.

Should Rawda alerts be Phase 1?
Phase 1 should expose the guide and signup intent. Automated alerting should wait for Phase 2 once user preferences and review cadence are defined.
Why is this marked Needs review?
Appointment rules and availability behavior can change, so the content needs explicit seasonal review.
Booking Rules
Passport limits, cancellation, rebooking, and confirmation rules.
