About The One Who Enjoins Good But Does Not Do It, And Forbids Evil But Does It

باب عُقُوبَةِ مَنْ يَأْمُرُ بِالْمَعْرُوفِ وَلاَ يَفْعَلُهُ وَيَنْهَى عَنِ الْمُنْكَرِ وَيَفْعَلُهُ

Sahih Muslim 2989b
حَدَّثَنَا عُثْمَانُ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا جَرِيرٌ، عَنِ الأَعْمَشِ، عَنْ أَبِي وَائِلٍ، قَالَ كُنَّا عِنْدَ أُسَامَةَ بْنِ زَيْدٍ فَقَالَ رَجُلٌ مَا يَمْنَعُكَ أَنْ تَدْخُلَ عَلَى عُثْمَانَ فَتُكَلِّمَهُ فِيمَا يَصْنَعُ وَسَاقَ الْحَدِيثَ بِمِثْلِهِ ‏.‏
Abu Wa'il reported:

I was in the company of Usama b. Zaid that a person said: What prevents you to visit Uthman and talk to him for what he does? The rest of the hadith is the same.
