No I did not find a solution. I want to be able to display Arabic or Hindi
numerals according to whether the context is Arabic or English in the same

Hindi or Arabic throughout the document, regardless of context.

The typeface of the numerals in not an OOo setting. OOo has nothing to
do with it. You need to adjust your operating system to show the
numberals as you would like them according to language, via locales.
Optionally, there are fonts that can do that. I have only a generic
Arabic font on my system and I am not familiar with other fonts, but
you could look around and find them.

I thought that Saudi was a mixed locale, but apparently I was wrong. I
even mentioned that I might be wrong, as I use the Israeli locale, not
the Saudi locale. Try other Arabic locales. Duabi, Kuwait, and Yemen
come to mind- those are areas where (until 1990) western influence was
minimal.
