What kind of difference there is between the Shirk and the Kufr?

Kufr is the disbelief of one or some religious basics which are known with certainty that the Prophet has brought them from Allah. Shirk, on the other hand, one’s belief of Allah’s having a partner (or partners) or an associate in His being the Lord, in His names, attributions, and actions, although he/she believes in Allah’s existence; or one’s setting up partners in worship with Allah.

Shirk and Kufr are very close terminologies. The difference between them is that kufr is more general and shirk is more private. Therefore every shirk is a kufr but every kufr is not a shirk. Shirk comes about as a result of by associating partners to Allah and His Self, name and attributes. Kufr comes into being by accepting some of the beliefs which is known that they are kufr.

p.s. when people doubt that ALLAH SWT can forgive all, that is also an act of kufr.

In fact, faith and shirk can be combined! God says in the holy Quran, "And most of them do not believe in God except as they associate partners with Him" (12:106) Indeed, the pagans of Mecca believed in God! God quotes their explanation of this idiosyncrasy: "And they said 'we do not worship them (the idols) except so that they may bring us close to God!" (39:3)

The believing Muslim may feel safe from kufr but he or she should never feel safe from shirk because it can creep into their thoughts, words or deeds if they are not mindful. May God protect us all from the tactics of Satan.
