There is a difference between spinning and rotating, spinning involves very high speeds which holds all matter together by creating gravity (gravitational forces, gravitational field), and rotation is much slower, when rotating about it axis, earth or other planets are spinning, and when they are following a path (orbit) around another planet or star, they are rotating by another sort of gravity force that stems from the two bodies (attraction/repulsion?). So it is a very complicated matter, since we are talking about local gravity and effects of mutual gravity, on top of it all there is the Universal gravity.
And this is the weakest force of the four fundamental forces of the physical universe. The only place where it is not found is in subatomic particles, either because it is not needed, or because other forces are involved at that level, but nothing else in the universe escapes it.
The answer should be that if a planet stops spinning, it will simply disintegrate into particles.
