Change first item in abjad alph counter for Algeria, Morocco and Tunisia.

[seloumi]

In North African countries we usually use letter أ rather then ا as first element in arabic alph counter, please kindly take this into consideration.

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage[bidi=basic]{babel}
\babelprovide[import,main,alph=abjad]{arabic}
\babelfont{rm}{Amiri}

\begin{document}

\localenumeral{abjad}{1} % this should be أ not ا 

\end{document}

@seloumi The locales ar-MA, ar-DZ and ar-TN define two counters:

abjad = ا ب ج د ه‍ و ز ح ط ي ك ل م ن س ع ف ص ق ر ش ت ث خ ذ ض ظ غ
maghrebi.abjad = ا ب ج د ه‍ و ز ح ط ي ك ل م ن ص ع ف ض ق ر س ت ث خ ذ ظ غ ش

Do I have to change it in both?

[seloumi]

Yes, the first alph letter ا is used only in eastern countries: Egypt, Jordan, Iraq, ....
