7098. Narrated Abū Wā'il: Someone said to Usāma, "Will you not talk to this ('Uthmān)?" Usāma said, "I talked to him (secretly) without being the first man to open an evil door. I will never tell a ruler, who rules over two men or more, that he is good after I heard Allāh's Messenger ﷺ saying, 'A man will be brought and put in (Hell) Fire and he will circumambulate (go round and round) in (Hell) Fire like a donkey of a (flour) grinding mill, and all the people of (Hell) Fire will gather around him and will say to him, 'O so-and-so! Didn't you use to order others for Al-Ma'rūf (i.e., Islāmic Monotheism and all that Islām has ordained) and forbid from Al-Munkar (i.e., polytheism, disbelief and all that Islām has forbidden)?' That man will say, 'I used to order others for Al-Ma'rūf but I myself never used to do it, and I used to forbid others from Al-Munkar (i.e. polytheism, disbelief and all that Islām has forbidden) while I myself used to do it.'"

7098 - حَدَّثَنِي بِشْرُ بْنُ خَالِدٍ، أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ، عَنْ شُعْبَةَ، عَنْ سُلَيْمَانَ، سَمِعْتُ أَبَا وَائِلٍ، قَالَ: قِيلَ لِأُسَامَةَ: أَلاَ تُكَلِّمُ هَذَا؟ قَالَ: قَدْ كَلَّمْتُهُ مَا دُونَ أَنْ أَفْتَحَ بَابًا أَكُونُ أَوَّلَ مَنْ يَفْتَحُهُ، وَمَا أَنَا بِالَّذِي أَقُولُ لِرَجُلٍ، بَعْدَ أَنْ يَكُونَ أَمِيرًا عَلَى رَجُلَيْنِ: أَنْتَ خَيْرٌ، بَعْدَ مَا سَمِعْتُ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ: " يُجَاءُ بِرَجُلٍ فَيُطْرَحُ فِي النَّارِ، فَيَطْحَنُ فِيهَا كَطَحْنِ الحِمَارِ بِرَحَاهُ، فَيُطِيفُ بِهِ أَهْلُ النَّارِ فَيَقُولُونَ: أَيْ فُلاَنُ، أَلَسْتَ كُنْتَ تَأْمُرُ بِالْمَعْرُوفِ وَتَنْهَى عَنِ المُنْكَرِ؟ فَيَقُولُ: إِنِّي كُنْتُ آمُرُ بِالْمَعْرُوفِ وَلاَ أَفْعَلُهُ، وَأَنْهَى عَنِ المُنْكَرِ وَأَفْعَلُهُ "
