The Qur'an really says that islam is the religion of the Arabs only

Um....as you utter but Q14:4 says that

1. Allah only sends a rasul/nabi to his people

2. This nabi/rasul must speak the language of his people

3. Muhammad spoke Hijazi Arabic and his people spoke Hijazi Arabic

4. Therefore Muahmmad was only sent to his people because he spoke their language the Hijazi Arabic

5. Muhammad was not sent to your ancestors as he spoke no Urdu

6. Then who is really your rasul because he ain't Abul Qasim aka Muhammad?

See how easy it is?

And to make it easy for you the 3Ulama early on realized such fact that Islam is indeed the religion of the Arabs based on Q14:4 (see Suyuti) and this is why we had the bizarre concept of al-mawali and the fact that any one who wanted to convert to the religion of the Arabs he must become an Arab first or mawla and then he can convert to islam!

See?Islam is indeed the religion of the Arabs

Do you want more evidence from the Qur'an? Just ask.
