What is the word for Torah in Arabic?

The word "Torah" in Hebrew or among Jews means a few of different things. Each of those meanings corresponds to a different translation into Arabic. 1) Torah as in the Pentateuch is typically translated as Tawrat Musa (توراة موسى) which literally means the "Torah of Moses" to distinguish it from the Old Testament which is also commonly called Tawra (توراة). (The official term for Old Testament which is Ahd Al-Qadim (عهد قديم) is an official term and not used often by non-professionals.) 2) Torah as in the Customs and Traditions of Jews (i.e. He follows his Torah) is typically translated as Taqlid al-Yehud (تقليد اليهود) which literally means "the Tradition of the Jews". 3) Torah as in the Oral Torah and the Canon of Jewish Law is typically translated as Ash-Shari'a Lil-Yehud (الشريعة لليهود) or "Religious Law for the Jews".

Why is the Pentateuch called the Law?

It is called the Law for two reasons. One is that Law is one of the translations of the word Torah (it can also be translated as The Teaching). The other is that the Torah (pentateuch) is replete with laws: six hundred and thirteen of them. The simplest function of the Torah is for the Jews to observe its laws.
