No body claims ISLAM brought Maths or science. and no religion does claim so. not Buddha also. Muslims preserved and improved upon all the good things and religional traditions of any civilisation. and eliminated only the evils things and customs.
improvements upon Roman/Indian sciences like alchemy, algebra, algorithm, ( the name al says it that it's arab), arab numerals, Unani medicines, Archetechture etc. Greats are Alkhearizmi, Aljaabir, Ibn Seina, Alberounie etc.
Literature: Rumi, Saadi, Arabian Nights, story of Laila Majnu, Alberounie, Ibn Batuta, Love poems of Haafiz, popularisation of Poetry, etc.
Philosophy : Ibn Rushd (Averos) Al-Gazali, etc. Rabindra Nath also was a pupil of Rumi and Haafiz's Mysticism and Poetry. His Father went to reclusion in a hillside for 2 yrs and did meditation and chanted the poems of Rumi and Haafiz, and reportedly got beatific vision and enlightemnt, in his words. it's just one example. many more like Kabir and Sai baba evry one knows. Iqbaal, who does not know. even the Critics use his couplets for their benefit.
One should know that West also acknowledges that East (Arabs/India/China etc) only brought enlightenment to West. (i am not talking about light from electricity or sun). Roger Becon, the only learned man of Europe before 16th cen, also got his education from Muslim Spain and later became a professor in newly found Oxford univ in 12th cen. Military art and science, not to mention, Because India had enough of Islamic militaries.
Muslims Worlds contribution is greatest in Modern World also. Because, 20th Modernity was totally dependent on oil. you will agree if you have some science and engg backgraound. And 2/3rd of used oil came from Muslims: arab, iran, libya, egypt, Brunie, Kazakhastaan, Uzbekistan, Ukrain, and many more.
actually, Dacoits attack the well off and rich people. Hence, Jews and communists are the dacoits. isnt it? BUT DACOITS ONE DAY WILL HAVE TO LEAVE.
