There is a historical Gurdwara in bagdad, that shows that guru nanak ji did travel all the way to the middle east.  

outside the gurdwara you can see some muslim graves 

There is this video showing that the place exists still, but is in total shambles.  A lone man is taking care of it, bless him. If I someday decide to give up my wordly ways of working to pay rent and feed myself and finding a wife then I will commit to the ways of the nihang, yet not be one of skin, and occupy this place.   I was freed by sikhi to see God as he truly is, I owe it to the Guru for showing me this.

A famous book written by a non-muslim, from the times of Guru Nanak Dev Ji, that mention visiting Mecca by Ludovico di Varthema was published in 1510. So its not out of the question.
