The Quran said it explicitly:
Quote:Sura 2, The Quran:
( 183 ) O you who have believed, decreed upon you is fasting as it was decreed upon those before you that you may become righteous -
( 184 ) [Fasting for] a limited number of days. So whoever among you is ill or on a journey [during them] - then an equal number of days [are to be made up]. And upon those who are able [to fast, but with hardship] - a ransom [as substitute] of feeding a poor person [each day]. And whoever volunteers excess - it is better for him. But to fast is best for you, if you only knew.
I read that as "fisting" for some reason the first time and it was much more entertaining.
