The answer

Describing Allamah Ali al-Qari as a polytheist (mushrik) is a clear deviation (dalal mubin), and the description of him as an innovator (mubtadi') cannot be applied, because he supports the madhhab of the Salaf and establishes the Aqidah of Ahl al-Sunnah wal-Jama'ah in many places. He also defended Shaykh al-Islam Ibn Taymiyyah and Ibn al-Qayyim, refuting those who accused them of holding corrupt beliefs.

As for Abd al-Qadir al-Jilani, he is worthy of praise and commendation without exaggeration. The description "Our Master, Our Support, and Our Liege Lord" (sayyiduna wa sanaduna wa mawlana) for him is acceptable, whereas "The Rabbani Pole and The Samadani Succor" (al-Qutb al-Rabbani wal-Ghawth al-Samadani) are rejected Sufi phrases that carry innovative meanings.
