At what temperature for a concrete curing is absolutely necessary?

It should be above 40F. Concrete goes through a chemical reaction called hydration, below 40F this process almost stops. Putting concrete blankets over the concrete can allow pours in much lower temperatures. The 40F represents the concrete temperature, while curing it produces heat so the air temperature can be cooler than 40F. Concrete can be poured below freezing but it needs to be protected with concrete blankets to hold in its heat. If the water in the concrete freezes before it is cured than it will definitely fail.

How can prevent water leak on a concrete roof?

You have a major problem. concrete is not water proof (liquid or vapor)or really even water resistent. If you look at a concrete pool or tank, a thin plaster coating provides the water proof layer - not the concrete. Your best bet is to remove the concrete, lay down a real water proof layer and reinstall the concrete. You can put so called water proof paints/materials on the cement, but they will only last a few years. In the mean time, you will have completely rotted the wood framing that supports the concrete slab.
