The NUMERICAL VALUE
(Source: The Universal History of Number, by Georges Ifrah)
|
The Arabs have frequently used a system of Numerical Notation in which each letter of their own alphabet has a specific numerical value. According to F. Woepke (1863 - The Historian who is expert in the history of number), They " seem to have considered (this system) as uniquely and by preference their own". They call this " huruf al jumal " (calculating the total) which means something like " totals means of letter" Another name of Numerical Value is what they call JEWISH "GEMATRIA" (possibly a corruption of Greek geometrikos arithmos, geometrical number). For my web, I'd prefer to use NUMERICAL VALUE (easy to understand) than Gematria. Here is THE TABLE OF ARABIC NUMERICAL VALUE Learn more about Abjad Value |
