The Holy Quran 40:80 — Surah Ghafir

Arabic text

وَلَكُمْ فِيهَا مَنَـٰفِعُ وَلِتَبْلُغُوا۟ عَلَيْهَا حَاجَةً فِى صُدُورِكُمْ وَعَلَيْهَا وَعَلَى ٱلْفُلْكِ تُحْمَلُونَ

Translation

There are many (other) uses for you in them (such as using their skins), and (Allaah has created them) so that you may attain (reach) the need in your hearts by riding them (such as riding them for trade or for visiting). You are transported on them (on land) and on ships (at sea, thus making your travels easy).

Tafsir (excerpt) — Tafsir Usmani

Riding is in itself one purpose, and by means of riding a person attains many purposes, both religious and worldly. That is, on land you travel about loaded on the backs of animals, and on water on ships.
