That's misleading.
Most Arab countries, including Jordan, do not use sharia law. Jordan's criminal courts are secular. Sharia law only applies to personal status matters like marriage and divorce and also only applies to Muslims. Christians and other communities are governed by a different set of laws.
Nice try though.
