1. Lust, Islam consider acting upon lust is sin. Lust can be source of sin but not sin itself. If a person fulfill lust from his wife, it can't be sin.
2. Gluttony : It is a sin, but not a major sin.
3. Greed itself is not a mojor, greed is an attitude which may result in sin. Greed of good things, like greed of God's pleasure, Greed of paradise is positive aspect of greed
4. Sloth: Again, it is a bad attitude towards life. It can result in sin.
5. Wrath, good wrath is good and bad wrath is bad. If wrath is against evil and satan it is good.
6. Not good,
7. Pride is Ok if it is limited to expression of thanking God. Otherwise it is a major sin. Pride is exclusive right God.

No, we do not believe in the Christians beliefs..the idea of 7 deadly sins originates with Christan's and as a Muslim who follows the Quran and Sunnah of Prophet Mohammed(saw) we would not revert to using Christian Ideology to teach us about our religion. We should use the Quran and Hadiths to teach us about Islam..
In a hadith, Muhammad(saw) says, "Avoid the seven noxious things", and after saying this, he mentions them, "associating any partners with God, practicing magic, killing a person without a just reason, consuming the property of an orphan, devouring usury, fleeing from battle when the army is advancing and slandering chaste women." (quoted in both Sahih Bukhari and Sahih Muslim)
Abdullah ibn 'Abbas said: "Seventy is closer to their number than seven," as that hadith does not limit the major sins to those mentioned in it. Rather, it points to the type of sins which fall into the category of "major."
There are many other major sins like gambling, stealing, adultery, and suicide, but Muhammad(pbuh) singled out those that everyone must watch out for constantly. There are seventy major sins and many minor ones, but these were specifically emphasized by Muhammad and the prophets before him.
