Is there an authentic Hadith stating that whoever witnesses an evil and does not condemn it, the sinner will come on the Day of Judgment clinging to his neck, saying: "My Lord, ask him why he did not advise me"? And is abandoning enjoining good and forbidding evil considered among the injustices that will be repaid on the Day of Judgment with good deeds and sins?
Enjoining good and forbidding evil, and offering sincere advice to Muslims are great obligations. Abandoning them is among the major sins for which a person will be held accountable on the Day of Judgment if enjoining or forbidding was incumbent upon him and he was capable without causing corruption. No hadith with the meaning inquired about has been reported.
