It’s a commemoration of the date when the first lines of Quran were revealed to Muhammad. Muslims fast during Ramadan because Quran says so. It’s one of the Five Pillars of Islam which (kind of) make one a good Muslim, the other four being the Profession of faith (“There is no god but Allah…”), praying five times a day, giving alms and pilgrimage.
