There wasn't Judasim back then and there is no book of his religion as far as I am concered.
It is not Judasim, Christianity or Islam.
So what is the religion of him and why isn't there a book for his religion such as Torah, Bible or Quran?
He was a self-taught monotheist. He had a tradition of learning that he got from his ancestor, Shem. He spoke with God so he didn't need a book -- God says circumcise, you circumcise. He taught his family and retinue directly (except for some who also studied in the academy of Shem). Some say he did, indeed, author certain texts (or teach their contents which otehrs wrote down) such as the Sefer Yetzirah.

scripture answers you:
“This is the covenant I will make with the people of Israel after that time,” declares the LORD. “I will put my law in their minds and write it on their hearts. I will be their God, and they will be my people.

He worshiped Yahweh. Not sure it had a name. But he was the Father of the Jewish race, as it was his grandson Jacob that fathered the 12 tribes of Israel.
He was justified by faith. Genesis tells us he believed God and it was credited to him as righteousness. And God calls all Christians to the same thing today. While Abraham looked forward to the promise, we look back at the promise: Jesus.

Didn't the name YHWH come with Torah, which was dedicated to Moses as he asked for a name?

I'm sorry. Not sure what you mean by "dedicated to Moses".
Yahweh called Abraham. He appeared to Abraham and called him long before Moses existed. Yes, the Jews used the tetragrammaton in the Torah because they didn't want to write the name of God, but historically the name has been known as Yahweh.

So, it wasn't Moses which God gave the name of YHWH at first?
Is the name YHWH known by people before Torah?
