Ramadan (also written Ramazan, Ramzan, Ramadhan, Ramdan, Ramadaan) is the ninth month of the Islamic calendar. It is the Islamic month of fasting, in which participating Muslims refrain from eating, drinking, that is in excess or ill-natured; from dawn until sunset. Fasting is meant to teach the Muslim patience, modesty and spirituality. Ramadan is a time for Muslims to fast for the sake of Allah and to offer more prayer than usual. During Ramadan, Muslims ask forgiveness for past sins, pray for guidance and help in refraining from everyday evils, and try to purify themselves through self-restraint and good deeds. As compared to the solar calendar, the dates of Ramadan vary, moving backwards about ten days each year as it is a moving holiday depending on the moon. Ramadan was the month in which the first verses of the Quran were said to be revealed to the Prophet Muhammad 
.
The name “Ramadan” derived from an Arabic root denoting intense heat, scorched ground and shortness of rations. In the Quran, Allah proclaims that “fasting has been written down (as obligatory) upon you, as it was upon those before you”.
Ayahs and Hadith about Ramadan
Allah ’s Apostle said, “When the month of Ramadan starts, the gates of the heaven are opened and the gates of Hell are closed and the devils are chained.” [Bukhari] …
Narrated Abu Huraira(r.a): The Prophet said:”… whoever fasts during Ramadan out of sincere faith and hoping to attain Allah ’s rewards, then all his past sins will be forgiven.” (Sahih Al-Bukhari).
“…whoever witnesses the Month of Ramadan should fast through it…” (Quran 2:185)
“Ramadan is the (month) in which the Quran was sent down, as a guide to mankind and a clear guidance and judgment (so that mankind will distinguish from right and wrong)..” (Quran 2:183)
“Oh you who believe! Fasting is prescribed to you as it was prescribed to those before you, that you many learn piety and rightousness” (Quran, al-Baqarah, 2:183)
“…And it is better for you that ye fast, if ye only knew.” (Quran 2:184)
The Messenger of Allah (may Allah bless him and grant him peace) addressed his companions on the last day of Sha`ban, saying, “Oh people! A great month has come over you; a blessed month; a month in which is a night better than a thousand months; month in which Allah has made it compulsory upon you to fast by day, and voluntary to pray by night. Whoever draws nearer (to Allah ) by performing any of the (optional) good deeds in (this month) shall receive the same reward as performing an obligatory deed at any other time, and whoever discharges an obligatory deed in (this month) shall receive the reward of performing seventy obligations at any other time. It is the month of patience, and the reward of patience is Heaven. It is the month of charity, and a month in which a believer’s sustenance is increased. Whoever gives food to a fasting person to break his fast, shall have his sins forgiven, and he will be saved from the Fire of Hell, and he shall have the same reward as the fasting person, without his reward being diminished at all.” [Narrated by Ibn Khuzaymah] ..

None of you truly believes until he loves for his brother what he loves for himself
Ask not what Islam can do for you, but what you can do for Islam. This is the month of Ramadan in which we should help and think about the community and others in need. This is the time in which we bring everyone together and there shouldn’t be anyone in the community who is in need what so ever. This is how we should be in this blessed month of Ramadan. Quit blaming the community, and start being proactive, join the community, build love, work together and help each other.
“None of you truly believes until he loves for his brother what he loves for himself.” – Prophet Muhammad (saws)

Quran inspired the Muslims to take up Science
It is a fact that it is the Glorious Qur’an alone that inspired the Muslims to take up the scientific study of the universe. For fulfilling their obligations of the religion and Shariah, it urged the Muslims, in varied styles, to reflect upon the natural phenomena, fathom deep into the systems that are upholding the whole administration of this universe and evolve means and methods of seeking benefits from them. Some of such verses are as follows:
Say: ‘Behold all that is in the heavens and on earth.’ (Qur’an, 10:10)
Say: ‘Travel through the earth and see how God did originate creation; so will God produce a later creation.’ (Qur’an, 29:20)
Do they not look at the Camels; how they are made? – And at the Sky, how it is raised high? – And at the Mountains, how they are fixed firm? – And at the Earth, how it is spread? (Qur’an, 88:17-20)
Do they not look at the sky above them? How We have made it, and adorned it, and there are no flaws in it? (Qur’an, 50:6)
