The answer

Whoever commits a sin for which there is no prescribed punishment (hadd) or expiation (kaffara) shall be subjected to discretionary punishment (ta'zir) by the Imam or his deputy. This includes wanton display (tabarruj).

Ta'zir is the prerogative of the ruler or his deputy, and it is not legislated for anyone else.
