Every pedal brings us closer — not just to a destination, but to our purpose.

Datuk Qobin and Amar Baharin — two ordinary men with extraordinary dreams — are riding their bicycles across 7 countries, from Malaysia to the Holy Land of Mecca.

What started as a casual weekend hobby has now become a life-changing mission. A mission of the heart. A mission of the soul.

They ride with one hope — to inspire people around the world that no dream is ever too big… when the heart is sincere, and the journey is for Him.

More Than Just A Ride
Every pedal brings us closer

This is not just about cycling. This is about testing patience, building faith, and surrendering fully to the will of Allah.

This journey is for everyone who believes in dreams. For everyone searching for peace. For everyone longing to return to their Creator.

QandA is short for Qobin & Amar—a brotherhood that began with weekend rides and grew into a journey of a lifetime. More than a pilgrimage, this is a story of soul-searching, perseverance, and unity.

The Journey

Two Friends. One Mission. Thousands of Kilometres. Infinite Prayers.

A Spiritual Cycling Journey from Malaysia to Mecca.

How It All Began — From A Simple Joke To A Life-Changing Mission

Sometimes, the greatest journeys in life begin with the simplest of moments.

For Datuk Muhamad Muqharabbin Mokhtarrudin (Datuk Qobin) and Amar Baharin, it all started with their love for cycling. Weekends were their escape — exploring scenic routes across Malaysia, sharing stories, laughter, and building a bond beyond just friendship.

But one day, after a long ride, Amar casually said:
“Why don’t we cycle all the way to Mecca?”

It sounded like a joke at first. They laughed it off. But the thought lingered.

Days turned into weeks… weeks into serious conversations… until the impossible slowly became a dream — and the dream transformed into a mission.

This wasn’t going to be just another cycling adventure. This was going to be their journey of a lifetime — a journey of faith, friendship, and finding their way back to Allah SWT.

The Mission

This journey is for everyone who believes in dreams.
For everyone searching for peace.
For everyone longing to return to their Creator.

“Because the greatest journey is always… the journey back to Him.”

Why Are They Doing This?

Because life is more than comfort.
Because faith grows stronger through struggle.
Because the road to Mecca is also the road back to themselves.

This journey isn’t about proving their strength.

It’s about proving their surrender.
Every kilometer cycled is filled with challenges — physical pain, harsh weather, border crossings, and lonely roads.

But for Qobin and Amar… these challenges are gifts. Lessons from Allah. Reminders of patience. Proof of trust.

“Some people fly to Mecca in hours. We choose to reach it in months — because the journey shapes us more than the destination.”

“This journey to Mecca is not measured in distance or days — but in moments of faith, tears of struggle, and countless prayers whispered along the way.”

The Purpose

To inspire the world that nothing is impossible when done with sincerity.

To remind everyone that life is not just about reaching a destination — it’s about the journey that shapes your soul.

“Every sunrise we chase reminds us that life is a blessing. Every hardship reminds us that we are nothing without Him.”

This journey is about faith over fear. Purpose over comfort. Surrender over control.

They ride not just for themselves — but for everyone who dares to dream, to believe, and to never stop moving forward.
