amongts them Mulla 'Ali Qari and 'Allama 'Ayni. You might want to read the work by Allama Mari' in which Ulema have praised him (Ulema from other than the Hanbali Madhab).

There can be many reasons for Mulla 'Aliy al-Qâri (رحمه الله), one thing is sure he wasn't aware of the beliefs of Ibn Taymiyyah through reliable reports or didn't have the books himself for he himself stated;

Sħarĥ Al-Fiqh Al-Akbar:
“فمن أظلم ممن كذب على الله أو ادعى ادعاء معينا مشتملا على اثبات المكان والهيئة والجهة من مقابلة وثبوت مسافة وأمثال تلك الحالة، فيصير كافرا لا محالة) اهـ.
“Who is more unjust than the one that lied about Aļļaah, or claimed something that included affirming (to Him) a place, shape or direction such as facing, distance and the like… Such a person becomes a kaafir (non-Muslim) without doubt (P. 355).”

–Sharh Al-Fiqh Al-Akbar, Ali Al-Qari, Dar Al-Basħa’ir Al-Islamiyah, Beirut, 1998.

I don't know which books Shaykh 'Abd al-Fattah Abu Ghudda (رحمه الله) edited but it looks like he didn't read all of his books or it could be that he believed in Ibn Taymiyyah's repentance.
