Actually, I suspect it is much more simple. I don't think that either the terms 
"Torah" (turat) or Gospel (injiil) were "somethings." They were names used in 
the Qur'an for, respectively, the Revelations of Moses and Christ. IMO, these 
terms, in this particular context, have no direct relationship with the 
Pentateuch and the four Gospels, which are human records of, and commentaries 
on, those two Revelations.
