The Egyptian magazine ar-Rawi (Arabic: الراوي; DMG: ar Rāwī; English: "The Narrator") was published in Alexandria, part of the Khedivate of Egypt, between 1888 and 1890. A total of 21 issues in two volumes were edited. Founder of the magazine was the Lebanese journalist and author Salim Sarkis (1869-1926). He also published many other magazines which are known as Sarkis journals. According to its subtitle, ar-Rawi particularly focused on topics related to literary and humorous content.
