Ramadan is a month in the Islamic calendar. During this month, Muslims fast from sunrise to sunset. It teaches understanding those less fortunate, as well as patience, self control, and discipline.
Ramadan encourages Muslims to keep in touch with Allah. It also encourages Muslims to do the right thing that Allah will approve of. Another thing is that during Ramadan, Allah, holds off all of the devils, (except the maybe the little ones); so anything you do is something you desired, it is not something that Satan may have tricked you into doing.
Discipline. In the words of the Prophet, "Fasting is half of discipline; discipline is half of faith."

Ramadan is the Islamic month during which the holy Quran started descending on prophet Mohammad (May god's peace and blessing be upon him) by God through the Angel Gabriel (Jibril).
In this month the rate or amount of good work you do is increased hoping God more rewarding. People are more motivated to give charities and other good deeds. They are looking, by their fasting, to be rewarded by God forgiveness and satisfaction.
In addition,
· The most important benefit of fasting is obedience to ALLAH (God) commanded us to fast the whole month of Ramadan. This is the fourth pillar of Islam five pillars.
· Second, it leads to spiritual self purification and full submission to ALLAH (God).
· Third, it is a motivation not to approach what is prohibited to be done by religion. If you used, during fasting, to forbid yourself from eating food, drinking, doing sex with your partner of marriage (things that are allowed out of fasting) then you will be used to forbid yourself from doing what is prohibited to be done as drinking Alcohol, gambling, prostitution, cheating, etc...
· Fourth, you will have closer feeling with the poor suffering and you will be more tending to give donations and charities to those who need.
