Question:
What are the consequences, Honorable Shaykh, of the disunity of the Ummah?
Answer:
The consequences are many, and they are all bad, including the weakness of the Muslims. Allah, Glorified and Exalted is He, said:[Al-Anfal 8:45-46] So, contention and division cause failure, cause the weakening of strength, allow the enemy to dominate, and breed discord and grudges in hearts, as well as mutual hatred among Muslims. Therefore, there is evil in disunity and great harms in it, and for this reason Allah, Glorified and Exalted is He, prohibited it. Yes.

(45) O you who have believed, when you encounter a company [from the enemy forces], stand firm and remember Allah much that you may be successful. (46) And obey Allah and His Messenger, and do not dispute and [thus] lose courage
يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا إِذَا لَقِيتُمْ فِئَةً فَاثْبُتُوا وَاذْكُرُوا اللَّهَ كَثِيرًا لَّعَلَّكُمْ تُفْلِحُونَ وَأَطِيعُوا اللَّهَ وَرَسُولَهُ وَلَا تَنَازَعُوا فَتَفْشَلُوا
