Word of the Day
whosoever

whosoever
an archaic or formal word for whoever

Abu Hurairah, R.A. reported that Prophet Muhammad, S.A.W. said,
"Whosoever relieves from a believer some grief pertaining to this world, Allah will relieve from him some grief pertaining to the Hereafter."
(Imam Muslim)

@SonnyWhosoever a.k.a. Sonny Sandoval, the vocalist of P.O.D.

I think that the first time I was introduced to this word is courtesy of @LaceySturm (although now I can't seem to find exactly where it appeared :P), so I initially thought that the word have a strong relevance to Christianity. But, a couple days later, the quotation above (courtesy of @Muhammad (S.A.W) - The Last Messenger) appeared on my FB homepage timeline. Cool, eh?
