Well, obviously, they're interested in Islam, and want to understand it better. Some of them may even become converts. I'm interested in Islam myself, but draw the line at learning Arabic b/c I'm really bad at foreign languages -- I haven't even been able to learn Spanish!

People over here have to go through a course in secondary school called Religious Studies, where we look at and compare the 5 most popular religions and their teachings. Personally, I'm an atheist but I can honestly respect diversity and culture even in my own country. So be respectful of them.
Also, if they choose to learn arabic, that is their desicion to make.

Don't you think you'd get more accurate information to ask them rather than the people here who don't know why those individuals chose to go to school in Jordan? Go to the source.

I read it (just as i read the book of mormon and new world translation)
I need to learn false ways to warn others away. Need to understand Gods enemies to fight against them.
