What was that all about?

On 17 October 2008, SCEE instigated a worldwide recall of LittleBigPlanet and announced the game's release be pushed back, after a PlayStation Community member reported the lyrics to one of the licenced songs in the game included passages from the Qur'an and could therefore be offensive to some Muslims. The song was entitled "Tapha Niang" by Malian artist Toumani Diabaté, himself a devout Muslim.
I don't understand how a Muslim hearing quotes from their bible could be considered offensive?
I thought one of the Islamic tenets was to learn, read and quote scripture?
