Question

What is the status of a person who despite not consuming pork and liquor does not believe these to be 100% haraam?

Answer

A person who totally abstains from pork and wine, but believes that it is not 100% haraam, is guilty of kufr even if he abhors this rijs (filth). Anything which is 100% haraam must be believed 100% to be haraam. Hating it is not sufficient to save a person from kufr. One has to believe in the way the Shariah commands belief.
