Thanks for the question … It can be a bit confusing … But the way to remember it is this:
- Doing a sin is kufr
- Being in a sin state and taking it to be ok is the being of a kafir person
- If a person dies as a kafir (not necessary while doing kufr) then he is not Muslim
- If a Muslim person dies and his sins have come out heavy then he must first enter jahannum to have his weight of sins paid for before being granted to enter heaven
- Unless by some other avenue of the Rahma of Allah (SWT) he is forgiven his sins then he might enter Jannah directly
We should counter a sin by a good act - we are weak and we can sin - even if a gay wants to be a good Muslim and finds himself doing the act - if he seeks forgiveness sincerely (i.e. not taking pride in the act) then that is what makes him Muslim - by avoiding the liwata/zina act that is what makes him an adherent Muslim.
To die in the state of shirk is also condemnation - this is because shirk is very heavy in the scales … So even a life time of good work will be lighter in the scales against shirk. And Allah (SWT) is Just.
