What Wikipedia says

The Eastern Arabic numerals, also called Indo-Arabic numerals, or Arabic–Indic numerals, as designated by Unicode, are the symbols used to represent numerical digits in conjunction with the Arabic script in the countries of the Mashriq (the east of the Arab world, including the Arabian Peninsula), and the variants in other countries that use the Persian numerals in greater Iran and Asia.
