problem with search for Arabic countries in Arabic language

there are two type of the first letter in the Arabic alphabet which are ( ا ) and ( أ ) and they are kind of the same letter in country names so both should function as the same letter not as two letters when the country name contains any of them
example of the problem:
when searching for Jordan ( الأردن ) most of users will write it as ( الاردن ) and it will not show because of the letter ( أ ) is not functioning as the letter ( ا ) but it should.
and the same for the other names

Start by locating the country-name search implementation and the country data used for Arabic names. Reproduce the Jordan search with الأردن and الاردن, then verify that equivalent initial letters return the same country and that other country searches remain unchanged.
