He made the recitation while attending a Quranic program at Imam Reza (AS) Shrine in Mashhad.

What follows is the translation of the recited verses:

'See, this is your recompense, your striving is thanked.' (22)

We have indeed, sent down to you the Koran, a (clear) sending, (23)

therefore be patient under the Judgement of your Lord, and do not obey either the sinner or the unbeliever. (24)

And, remember the Name of your Lord at the dawn and in the evening; (25)

and in the night prostrate to Him; and exalt Him for a long night. (26)

Indeed, these love the hasty life, and are heedless and leave behind them a heavy Day. (27)

We created them, and We strengthened their joints, but, when We will, We shall indeed exchange their likes. (28)

This is indeed a Reminder, so that he who will, takes a path to his Lord. (29)

Yet you will not unless Allah wills; surely, Allah is the Knower, the Wise. (30)

He is Merciful to whom He will; but, for the harmdoers He has prepared for them a painful punishment. (31)
