Arabic Keyboard on Laptop

I just unboxed my new laptop and put has Arabic characters on the keyboard. I totally do not need or want this - are all keyboards like this now? I didn't choose or want this - it's very distracting as I do not speak or write in anything other than English.

MacBook Pro 14″, macOS 13.5

Where exactly did you buy this machine? When you buy from Apple, you have to choose which language keyboard you want (they make a couple dozen different ones), and depending on where you are, Arabic can be difficult or impossible to get. In any case, you need to contact the store directly yourself for a refund/return.
