    final QBChatService chatService = QBChatService.getInstance();
    final QBUser qbUser = new QBUser("shahzeb", "shahzeb143");
    QBAuth.createSession(qbUser).performAsync(new QBEntityCallback<QBSession>() {

                        @Override
                        public void onSuccess(QBChatDialog qbChatDialog, Bundle bundle) {

                            QBChatMessage chatMessage = new QBChatMessage();
                            chatMessage.setSenderId(qbUser.getId());
                            chatMessage.setBody("Hi there!");
                            try {
                                dialog.sendMessage(chatMessage);
                            } catch (SmackException.NotConnectedException e) {
                                e.printStackTrace();
                            }
                        }

                        @Override
                        public void onError(QBResponseException e) {

                        }
                    });
                }

                @Override
                public void onError(QBResponseException e) {

                }
            });
        }

        @Override
        public void onError(QBResponseException e) {

        }
    });

}

}

you have to call method sendMessage(..) on 'qbChatDialog' model not 'dialog' or you have to init 'dialog' for chat using dialog.initForChat(QBChatService.getInstance()); before sending message. See QuickBlox documentation
