In Scientology we have "The Basics".
The Basics are a collection of 18 books, all written by founder of the religion L. Ron Hubbard, that cover all the principles and practices of our religion.
These books can be obtained from the publishers "Bridge Publications" (for the US) or "New Era Publications" (for Europe). The books are also sold on the Scientology website or in any Scientology Bookstore inside a Scientology Church around the globe.
Millions of Scientology books are now also available in more than 151,000 libraries in 192 countries so that a person can just walk into a library and read them for free.
The basics represent a chronological path of research and development. It is extremely important, to have a full understanding, that a person follow the correct order in studying these materials. For example, the first books introduces new words and meanings, that are not repeated in the second book. More words and meanings are added in the second book which are not repeated in the third. You get the idea. If you pick up the 8th book from the basics without an understanding of the basics, you would probably feel confused.

There isn't one specific book. There are many books which constitute the scripture. One of the most important of these is called "Dianetics: The Modern Science of Mental Health". Another great one is "Scientology: A New Slant on Life". Both of these could be considered to be "the basics" of what Scientologists believe.
It might also be noted that in order to have all of their 'scriptures' you would have to spend about $30,000.00 USDollars

Quran the holy book
