Did Muslim and Jewish scholars save much of the learning of the ancient world after the roman empire fell?
Yes, that is correct. In Spain especially, there were very large Jewish and Muslim populations, both of which were at a high state of scholarship, science, and love of knowledge. From the 700s CE until the Christian conquest seven hundred years later, the Jews and Muslims supported their respective academies and scholars. Chemistry, mathematics, astronomy and philosophy were a few of the fields of pursuit at the time, together with the respective religious teaching; and this scholarship to some degree spread elsewhere too. Later, the Christians put a stop to all of this.

How did Muslims scholars help preserve learning from ancient world?
After Christianity became the state religion of the Roman Empire, Christian mobs, often led by the bishops, set about burning all literature that did not support the objectives of the Church. Many ancient texts were lost forever, as were nearly all the Gnostic Christian texts, at least until the Nag Hammadi disciveries of the twentieth century. In large parts of the Middle East, the Nestorians and Jacobites, who had been excluded from the Orthodox Church for alleged heresy, were outside the reach of Rome and were therefore free to follow their somewhat more tolerant teachings. By the time of the Muslim conquest, many of the most important ancient texts had survived under the protection of the Eastern Churches. The Nestorians and Jacobites continued to flourish for some centuries under Islamic rule, and provided many of the scholars of the early Islamic empire, teaching Muslim scholars the fundamentals of Greek scholarship. Whereas the Catholic-Orthodox Church had feared the damaging effect of non-Christian literature on innocent minds, the Muslims had no such concerns and made no attempt to destroy the ancient texts.
