Was interested in this myself so just had a Google Jordan is a constitutional monarchy it's king has more power than our royals do, he decides a lot. Sharia law is applied only to personal status such as divorce and inheritance Whilst the official religion is Islam Jordan also has freedom of religion and extends it to personal freedoms
In parts I think. But there are a lot more ‘liberal’ laws in Jordan and some other Middle Eastern countries This kind of illustrates the point I was trying to make earlier. Sharia law just means religious law, but it’s the application of those laws in practice which vary. If you get an evil dictator enacting sharia law, it’s the evil dictator who’s responsible for the abuse, rather than sharia law itself.
That's generally how these things go, you topple a hereditary tyrant and end up with something worse, and then everyone reminisces about the good old days.
They still burn the Pope every November 5th in Lewes, but I think it’s just an effigy. They also burned Nigel Farage this year, shame that wasn’t the real one…
