Well basicially Ramadan is practiced by Muslims around the world. The reason why we do it is so we can pay respects to Allah (God, same god as Catholics, Christians, etc) and all the things that he's given to us. We fast which means refraining from eating, drinking and sexual activities from dawn until sunset. Fasting is intended to teach Muslims about patience, humility and spirituality and is a time for Muslims to fast for the sake of God. We do this for one moon calender as well. The holy month starts once the moon is sighted and ends when the moon cycle is done for the month.
During Ramadan Muslims must fast, pray, give money to charity, feed others iftaar (the meal you eat to break your fast for the day during sunset), and meditate the mind. It is a month of reflection and 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.
