hmm not in arab algebra but that'd take more of a historian than me, I've used techniques similar to that though you could draw parallels between ideaspace and linear algebra, but ideaspace doesn't afford quite the same things as vector spaces
'(·) Retweeted '(·)
while you can (very fruitfully) draw parallels in both, ideas are for example not commutative (https://twitter.com/allgebrah/status/1005571591349194752 … + what remains of that thread)

super cool rabbithole actually, though you've probably already seen http://www.alpha60.de/research/scrambling_truth/ … since it's linked from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zairja ?
specifically, these look a lot like peg systems (http://www.ludism.org/mentat/PegSystem …) which, along with other arts of memory, we've mostly forgotten about but back then they were vibrant, greek numerals for example (the arabic version of which seems to be used here) were used in gematria
a peg system that rhymes is a fairly natural extension and would attract much the same people as those who already serve as astrologers, clerks etc
that is acknowledged in the document but only as a kind of aside, I suspect it's way more central (I'm halfway through, it may still come)pic.twitter.com/QO8Arv4BsN

the most tantalizing bit is there appears to have been a way to dance thispic.twitter.com/NmToX0611n
Is this some sort of precedent to whirling dervishes? In which case are they like disks of the enigma or something? 
I wish, it would be so cool!
