Abdel-Halim is also a member of the Jordan national team and helped his country to reach the 2011 AFC Asian Cup in Qatar after a dramatic 2–1 victory over Singapore in Amman on match day 6 because of his brilliant corner kick to his teammate Anas Bani Yaseen, which allowed Anas to score the winning goal at 60 min with a header.
