Islam is a religion and not a language. However the Arabic word for a governor is "Muhafez"

If you are talking about Empires or Caliphates like the Umayyad, Abbassid, Fatimid, Seljuk, and Ottoman States, the word that is most often used is "Wazir" or (in Turkish) "Vizier". "Muhafez" is the modern word for governor since "Wazir" now means "Minister".
