ABS means Anti-lock Braking System.
For a wheel to be able to contribute to the control of the vehicle the wheel has to be rolling. If you brake so hard that the wheel stops rolling, you are quite likely to lose control of the vehicle. ABS works mainly by comparing the rolling speed of all wheels, and if one wheel stops, the brake force to that wheel is released until it starts rolling again.
