Even if definite outcomes are not achieved, different
organizations are highly active and holding meetings in
the light of their own interests in many different regions.
These activities, which may be described as "better than nothing,"
nonetheless point to one very important truth:
Cooperation is essential for everyone. The opposite, that is,
conflict and disagreement, result in weakness and failure. Unity, on
the other hand, facilitates the attainment of common aims.
Muslims, who are 'brothers' in the view of the Qur'an, also have
an obligation to be united and to avoid division and separation.
God loves those who struggle in His Way in ranks like well-built
walls. (Qur'an, 61:4)
What needs to be done to that end is clear. According to this
verse, Muslims must:
◉ First and foremost be devoted to their brothers with love and
affection;
◉ Avoid argument and disputation;
◉ Be one another's friends and guardians;
◉ Watch over and protect one another under all circumstances;
◉ Advise and consult one another;
◉ Strive together intellectually against unbeliever ideologies in
ranks like well-built walls.
The opposite, in other words:
◉ Being divisive instead of unifying;
◉ Setting Muslims against one another;
◉ Exacerbating disagreements instead of calming them down;
