Meanings
The first five books of the Hebrew Scriptures, traditionally attributed to Moses and therefore also known as the Five Books of Moses.
Tradition holds that the Torah was handed down to Moses on Mount Sinai.
The Jews were denying that the punishment was stoning, and Muhammad demanded to see a copy of the Torah and that it be read to him.

Saleh, “A Fifteenth-Century Muslim Hebraist: Al-Biqāʿī and His Defense of Using the Bible to Interpret the Qurʾān”, in Speculum, volume 83, number 3, The University of Chicago Press, page 644:
