Salaams:

Just to be clear --

Hanbali: It is better to be a sinful person who observes some religious things than to be a sinful person who does not make any religious observance. Something is better than nothing. [crux of post]

You: Being sinful and observing religious practices have nothing to do with one another. [This is true, as people who are religious are not precluded from doing wrong things. However, it has nothing to do with what Hanbali -- who believes that one's sins should not prevent one from seeking to do good whenever one is able -- was saying.]

SixPak: It is a logical fallacy to suggest that someone who commits sins and also observes religion is a hypocrite. [Also true, and directed to Hanbali's point sins are not a logical reason to abandon all religious observance.]
