Summary/Abstract: This paper presents the problem of symbolic numbers in A. Achmal's poetic language. In the context of the fate of the poet, the number 3, 4, 7, 13 is of particular importance in her work. Their symbolism largely determines the Christian traditions, the human and tragic personal experiences of Akhmat and the generation to which she belonged.
