Educated people who believe in the scientific method don't believe in supreme beings because there is no proof that they exist and there is no way to either directly or indirectly observe the existence of a supreme being. I believe that most scientists who claim to believe in a god are saying that for reasons of social acceptance in the community or simply grew up with their faith and haven't challenged their beliefs much since.
Needless to say, I don't believe in a god. And I don't think that people who do can also fully embrace the scientific method.
I think the lack of scientists in islamic countries is caused by the fact that not believing in the word of god/allah is not socially acceptable. They will at least be socially isolated, but probably worse things would happen. Therefore the smarter and more educated people either emigrate to other countries or stay low.
