The 12" I have of My Life in the Bush of Ghosts does have this track, and it does have some readings from the Qur'an, but I really don't see why it had to be cut....

if I'm not mistaken - the Quran is the word of God... and this would have a physical representation of God (which *I'm pretty sure* you can't do) and on top of that - someone could say that it was a commercial gimmic (like Madonna on her last album)
basically - I think the worry was something along the lines of what happened w/ that Danish newpaper... except well - I'm sure Byrne/Eno would never have suspected something as extreme as that... but you get the point
