When Allah or His messenger want to teach us something, they do so in the clearest way, far from puzzles and mystery numbers. All the efforts made by some Muslims to count letters and relate them to numbers are nothing but a waste of time. Sometimes they do so with good intention to show that our deen is great. Indeed our deen is great, and not in need of such erroneous approaches.
but then where duz this number come from? because i have many muslim friends that have told me it has religous significance. they all have it after msn names, write it on text books, etc
Blessed, blessed is that tongue, O my soul, which sings the Glorious Praises of the Lord God.
Sublime, pure and pious is that head, O my soul, which falls at the Lords Feet.
Nanak is a sacrifice to those, O my soul, who hear of the Lord, and believe in the Lord's Name.

i think it came when they used to write letters over aand stuff and instead of writin "Bismillah" on a paper, they would write 786,
it has somethin to do with the numbers of summin of bismillah, if that makes sense
Jaa-Ro-Nee-Mo!!!
"they ask you when will the help of Allah (swt) come! Certainly Allah (Swt) help is always near"
yeh thats what i was told. but this topic condradicts that. is their any scriptures for backing up of its meaning? thanks

from the article:
Example: The common Islamic phrase بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم bi-smi-llaahi r-rahmaani r-rahiim ("in the name of God, the merciful, the compassionate" – see Basmala) would have a nominal value of 786 (from a letter-by-letter cumulative value of 2+60+40 + 1+30+30+5 + 1+30+200+8+40+50 + 1+30+200+8+10+40), where the word "Allah" (God) alone has the value 66.
each man thinks of his own fleas as gazelles
question authority
the answer is really simple. Did Prophet Muhammed saws substituted bismillah with numbers? if not then why should we do it? let's try substitute words with numbers on writing an essay on an exam and lets see what are the results (the grade). This thing is just kiddy. We have characters and we use them, so we don't substitute with numbers unless you are working with ASCII
oooh mann i've been writing 786 on everyone of my exam and test papers, what can I right instead?
Why write it at all though? Can't you just say it? Unless there is some virtue in writing it that i don't know of, I don't see why you need to actually write it...

it is numerical value of arabic abjad of bismillah but if you do anagram with this letters of bismillah you still get 786 therefore it can not be replaced for bismillah therefore those who think it can be they are doing bidah act of heresy
