The Shaykh :"This is the visit of one who clings to the Shari'ah of Islam and faith"
His statement: "This is the visit" refers to all the aforementioned description being a visit of one who clings to it. However, we say to Ibn al-Qayyim (may Allah have mercy on him and reward you for the Muslim community with good): this visit is in your view. As for some of the excesses you mentioned, there is no doubt that they are not a lawful visit. Do you understand? But it is excused for him (may Allah have mercy on him) that he was a scholar of independent legal reasoning, and a scholar of independent legal reasoning may be right or may be wrong. Then he said:
"Among the best of deeds is that visit, and it is on the scale of good deeds on the Day of Resurrection"
Yes, the lawful visit is undoubtedly on the scale of good deeds. As for the innovated visit, it is on the scale of bad deeds.
