Somewhere here you said Salafis are same as Sunni but astray but they say that Imam Ash’ary is not Muslim so can you kindly explain that?

Answered as per Hanafi Fiqh by Askimam.org
Answer

Abul Hasan al-Ashari was an Imaam of Aqaaid (Ilm al-Kalaam). He deduced on
the beliefs of the Ahlus sunnah Wal Jamaa in the light of the Qur’aan. Those
that claim he was not a Muslim have erred and are responsible for the
attribution of Kufr to a sincere believer.

They should support their claim with proofs and we shall answer them
thereafter.
