The current date summary in Arabic for Islamic Calendars uses only Eastern
Arabic Numerals, see attached image1.png.

This system is mainly adopted in the East of the Arab world and some African
countries like Egypt, Sudan, plus slight variations in Afghanistan Pakistan and
Iran…

But in the Maghreb region (North Africa: Morocco, Algeria, Tunisia and
Mauritania), the Western Arabic Numerals are the only form used to represent
numbers.

Even some Gulf countries, and Egypt, Sudan and Pakistan started to increase the
usage of the Western Arabic Numerals.

Example: Morocco’s Ministry of Endowments and Islamic Affairs, see image2.png.
