Law Verses
I have also seen them called "ruling verses" and "law-giving verses". I suggest you transliterate "Ayat Al-Tahkim" and put the explnation in brackets or as a footnote.

regulation verses
regulation verses.
These verses are not only about islamic laws or Shari'a, but also about all regulations concerning worship rites such as Fast and prayer in addition to laws concerning the Islamic state.

Alaa Zeineldine
: The description "regulation verses" may sound like "verses that follow a certain standard". The construct is similar to "regulation compass", or a "regulation soccer field." Note also that all the things you mentioned fall under Shari'a.

Just a few more suggestions. I agree with Sam that you should transliterate the term first before offering a translation.

The Verses of Law
References to English versions of the Bible refer to the Taurah (the first five books of the Old Testament) as the Books of Law. I think the similar phraseology "the Verses of Law" suits the scriptural context here.
If you do not have to translate word by word, then you do not have to translate "ayat", you could the say instead "Legal Text in the Quran", or "The Law in the Quran".

Important distinction:
المحكم is not the same as أحكام. The term محكم أو محكمات comes from the following ayah in Surat al-imran:
هُوَ الَّذِي أَنْزَلَ عَلَيْكَ الْكِتَابَ مِنْهُ آيَاتٌ مُحْكَمَاتٌ هُنَّ أُمُّ الْكِتَابِ وَأُخَرُ مُتَشَابِهَاتٌ
Both the محكم and أحكام are mentioned in the following hadith:
عن أبي هريرة رضي الله عنه أن رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم قال : إن القرآن نزل على خمسة أوجه حلال وحرام ومحكم ومتشابه وأمثال فاعملوا بالحلال واجتنبوا الحرام واتبعوا المحكم وآمنوا بالمتشابه واعتبروا بالأمثال
المحكمات are those ayat whose meaning is clear and apparent vs. المتشابهات whose meaning could not be readily understood by mortals because of information about the unseen world for example. The well known example frequently given for متشابهات is الرحمن على العرش استوى
الأحكام on the other hand cover الحلال والحرام, which is why I said it is mentioned in the above hadith. There is a well known collection of all آيات الأحكام in the following two-volume work:
تفسير آيات الأحكام، الشيم محمد علي الصابوني، دار البيان العربي.
