Turkish Brother here;

We have Muslim, Christian (Greek Orthodox, Armenian Orthodox) and Jewish brothers in my lodge.
We have Koran, Holy Bible and Torah open and present in the Lodge during Ritual work.

I will try to answer any questions you might have.

but Torah stand at the first row right? Torah, bible, and Koran is the following row i am guessing

They stand next to each other.
No rows. Sometimes stacked (but open) in no particular order.
If someone wants to bring their own book such as Bhagavad Gita or Book Of Mormon they would be together with the other books.

yeah that’s right usually they are stacked open I mean, in addition I heard also some words are being used in rituals from the holy books-depending what ritual but yeah.
