I don't get it, is this guy a hanafi or mutazil?

“ . As for az-Zamakhshari, let alone being a Hanafi, he did not even belong to Ahl as-Sunnat. He belonged to the Mutazila, one of the seventy-two heretical groups. Because the 'ibadat of the Mutazila resembled those of the Hanafi madhhab, the ignorant think that they were Hanafis.[1] ”
“ One of the noteworthy scholars of Hanafi Madh’hab, Zamakhshari rahimahullaah. said, “If there is a mother of misguidance then it is blind bigoted ”

“ We read in Tafseer Baydhawi Volume2 p. 9

Mut'ah is Nikah for a fixed time

Zamakshari was a renowned Sunni scholar and Imam Radhi praised him in his "Madhab Shafeeya," saying that 'he was a high ranking scholar, adherent of the Hanafi Madhab' Zamakshari deemed Mut'ah women to be wives, and Qurtubi and Baydhawi both confirmed that Mut'ah was a form of Nikah. [3]
