The answer

Firstly: There is no surah named "Umm al-Taweelatayn" (Mother of the Two Long Ones), nor is the term "al-Taweelatayn" (The Two Long Ones) applied to any surah. However, Surah Al-A'raf is referred to as "Tulá al-Tūlayayn" (The Longer of the Two Long Ones).

Secondly: The Companion whom the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, nicknamed "al-Qari'" (The Reciter) and appointed as the Imam of Quba Mosque is Sa'd ibn 'Ubayd ibn al-Nu'man al-Awsi. It is also said that he is Abu Zayd, who was mentioned in the hadith concerning the compilation of the Qur'an.

Thirdly: The author of the book "Al-Islam Bayna Jahl Abna'ih wa Kayd A'da'ih" (Islam Between the Ignorance of Its Adherents and the Malice of Its Enemies) is Abdul Qadir Oudah.
