Shaykh Muhammad Bin Yahya Al-Ninowy is very prominent Scholar of Islam.

It is one of the oldest Masaajid of Atlanta area. He was born in Aleppo( Halab) the northern capital of Syria.

Shaykh Muhammad began his study under his father, Sayyed Yahya, rahmatullahi alaih, memorising the Glorious Qur'an and acquiring knowledge in many of the Islamic disciplines, including Aqeedah, Fiqh, and Hadith . He particularly specialises in the fields of Hadeeth and Tawheed.

@Knowledge Seeker,
you may have given the gist of these 50 minutes videos:

"QURAN IS THE ONLY SOLUTION" that is the result of all this. The Alim could have said it
in a bank and white manner but he obscured it, survival is necessary!!!!! Why there is Firqa parasti in
Ummah:

a) Importance of all other books/material over Quran;
b) People do not wish to change themselves according to Quran, but wish to have it other way round;
c) mutual hate and intolerance;
BTW I liked it when said: If you start at 20, by the time you will get to "Sunnah", it will be more than
50s and still it will not be (More or less said like this). There is clear choice for Believers
"Either hold the Rope of Allah (Quran) and be united or resort to others and remain divided".

@Knowledge Seeker,

Point is noted. Insha'Allah, I will keep this in mind next time.

As far as division in Ummah is concern, this is mainly due to our arrogant attitude, intolerance and blame game for other groups or sources which we don't consider right so basically we are victim of the illness of self-righteousness that is why:

a)People who don't practice Tasawwuf, They blame Ahle Tasawwuf for division.
b)People who don't think following Fiqah is right, they blame Taqleed of Aimah is responsible for division.
c)People who don't think collection of Ahadith is reliable, they blame it for division. People who claim to follow only Quran, They blame the both collection of Ahadith and Fiqah accountable for division.

So this blame game just goes on and on.

In reality, None of the above mentioned groups of people are united and they have further division within them.

In fact, We are the real culprit not the Quran and Sunnah.

Anyway, I appreciate that you have watched the videos.
