It’s 2026 and I’ve noticed Sensodyne Rapid Action seems to taste different across states and regions in Nigeria. Curious if others have noticed this too.

[• @Alhamdhulillaah]

All praise is for Allāh, Ar-Raḥmān, Ar-Raḥīm, Al-Ghafūr, Al-Karīm, and Ar-Razzāq. We praise You for every blessing You have bestowed upon us, both seen and unseen. There is none worthy of worship except You, and to You alone we turn in hope and repentance.

O Allāh, send Your peace and blessings upon Prophet Muḥammad ﷺ.

O Allāh, as You made the month of Muḥarram a blessed month and saved Your Prophet Mūsā عليه السلام from Firʿawn and his army, save us from our sins, our hardships, and everything that distances us from You. Just as You made a way through the sea when there seemed to be no way, make a way for us through every difficulty and grant us relief from every burden.

Our Lord, we repeat the beautiful supplication of Mūsā عليه السلام:

"My Lord, indeed I am, for whatever good You would send down to me, in desperate need."

O Allāh, send down upon us Your goodness. Bless us with lawful and abundant wealth, place barakah in our earnings, and make our provision a means of drawing closer to You rather than away from You.

O Allāh, bless us with righteous spouses who will be the coolness of our eyes, fill our marriages with love, mercy, and tranquillity, and bless our families with faith, unity, good health, and steadfastness upon Your religion.

O Allāh, You are Al-Ghaffār, At-Tawwāb, and Al-ʿAfūw. Forgive our sins, overlook our shortcomings, conceal our faults, accept our repentance, and purify our hearts. Do not let this blessed month pass except that You have forgiven us, had mercy upon us, and written us among Your righteous servants.

Accept our prayers, our fasting, our charity, and every sincere act of worship. Answer our duʿāʾs, rectify our affairs, and grant us goodness in this life and the Hereafter.

Indeed, You are As-Samīʿ, Al-Mujīb, and Al-Qadīr.

Āmīn.
