Is it permissible to perform an act of worship (such as a night vigil or قرآن recitation) to show gratitude to someone who has done a favor, and to supplicate for them for the reward of this act without supplicating for oneself, and is a specific dedication formula required for this, or is the intention of the heart sufficient?
