The main effect was for the Muslims to actually start sticking together, to hide their differences and get along together so that they could mobilise huge armies to try and eject the Crusaders out of their homeland.
Before Saladin, there was Nur El Din...he was probably the first guy who sort of figured out that it was no good fighting crusaders with just small regional or city forces......he actually got together with some guys who mostly were his enemies, told them that by getting together, they could defeat the Christians.
It worked well for a while, until the different bickering factions started to break apart again.
I guess the main effect was the realisation by Muslims that to carry out a holy war, they had to forget smaller internal differences and issues.
Another effect that is quite important is the fact that middle eastern peoples do not forget what the crusaders did to them and their countries....to this day they have a mistrust of the Christians, they know what the Christians are capable of.

The renaissance. Not to mention that they are still aware of them in the middle east today. That beats even the memory of the civil war in the south.

Moslems learned to hate Christians.
Christians figured they needed to go west to get stuff from China and India.
Columbus found America.
