Question:
What is the virtue of unity of word and cohesion of ranks for the Muslim community?
Answer:
This is what Allah commanded, saying –Glorified and Exalted is He–: “O you who believe, obey Allah and obey the Messenger and those in authority among you. But if you differ over anything, refer it to Allah and the Messenger, if you should believe in Allah and the Last Day. That is the best in outcome and best in interpretation.” This is what Allah has commanded us to do. The community is mercy, and division is punishment. Therefore, Muslims should not split from their ruler in authority, but rather obey him in what is right, for in that lies benefit and the unification of the word, and it blocks the path for those who wish to corrupt society, or wish to break the bond of obedience, or wish to shed blood and plunder wealth, and the like.
