I'm not sure I see where the 'I am an Ash'ari' claim is. If you mean

2. It means that we follow Imam Ashari and Imam Maturidi r.am in the matters of aqeeda. But you know very well that in particular mas'alas one cannot be following Imam Maturidi as well as Imam Asharii because they have had subtle minor khilaf. Still we follow them both.

then it's obviously stating the view of Deobandis in general, not a personal view. I don't think it's right to say someone is an Asha'ri just because they are defending that view. It's like claiming someone is a Shafi'i just because a person defends that the word Quroo can be taken as Tuhr.
