Governor Miq Iqbal Urges NTB Contingent to Revive the Tradition of Achievement at National MTQ
West Nusa Tenggara (NTB) Governor Lalu Muhamad Iqbal is calling on the NTB contingent for the Musabaqah Tilawatil Qur’an (MTQ) to bring back their winning tradition at the National MTQ. He said this while checking in on the NTB’s XXXI National MTQ team’s training camp at the Hajj Dormitory Class I in Lombok, Mataram, as they gear up for the XXXI National MTQ in Semarang, set for September 11–20, 2026.
Miq Iqbal reminded everyone that NTB once used to be a major force at the National MTQ and that those achievements need to be revived through ongoing development. He stressed that this effort is about building a tradition of raising Quranic generations and making NTB Indonesia’s "Serambi Al-Qur’an" (Quranic Veranda), not just the Island of a Thousand Mosques.
TGH. Dr. Sabarudin, the daily chairman of LPTQ NTB, explained that 58 top participants are being coached by 16 trainers across 8 competition categories. The intensive training and daily evaluations will keep going until the National MTQ. The governor advised the participants to stay disciplined, look after their health, and stick together, and to leave the final outcome to Allah SWT after giving their best effort.
