The Good Luck Number 786 – are you aware of it?

By Chitraparna Sinha

The Number 786 is an Islamic symbol. The number signifies the benevolent and merciful Allah whom the Islamic world reveres. The number 786 is derived from the first verses of the Quran. It is the lucky number used by Muslims all over the world. When you add up the first verse of the Quran, its sum total comes to 786. This is where this number got its significance from and hence, is considered as a lucky number for Muslims. Not only Muslims use this number as their good luck charm, it is also used by the Hindus and all those people belonging to Indian origin. According to the ‘abjad’ system, the science of numerology in Islam, this number is valued a lot by the people of the sub-continent.

The number is used as an alternative to using the name ‘Allah’. People prefer to write this number on papers, documents and examination answers sheets. The name ‘Allah’ is not written on papers because they can get spoiled or destroyed, which will be seen as disrespect to Allah. It is a holy number and is said to bring good luck and good fortune for those who use it properly and with sanctity. It is generally used before starting any significant task. It is actually an alternative way of taking God’s name with sanctity. The belief of 786 bringing good luck is mainly followed by the South Asian Muslim Community. It is considered as a good omen by the Muslims.

Cultural views of luck vary from perceiving luck as a matter of random chance to attributing to luck explanations of faith or superstition.

Christianity and Islam believe in the will of a supreme being rather than luck as the primary influence in future events. The degrees of this Divine Providence vary greatly from one person to another; however, most acknowledge providence as at least a partial, if not complete influence on luck.

In Hinduism it is said that by proper worship, with a meticulous prayer procedure (Sanskrit: Shri Lakshmi Sahasranam Pujan Vidhi) the blessings of Lakshmi, the Hindu Devi (English: Divinity) of Money and Fortune, may be obtained. Lakshmi Parayan (Prayer) is performed in most Hindu homes on the day of Diwali or the festival of lights.
