What does the Qur'an say about fasting and Ramadan?

The Qur'an ties fasting to a single purpose: taqwa, God-consciousness. It reminds us this is not a new burden but a practice given to those before us too — a shared path toward becoming righteous.

“O you who have believed, decreed upon you is fasting as it was decreed upon those before you that you may become righteous.”— 2:183 (Saheeh International)
