Scholars have stated that the fasting of Ramadan was ordained in the second year of the Hijra. There is no specific occasion for the revelation of the verse about fasting: "O you who have believed, decreed upon you is fasting as it was decreed upon those before you that you may become righteous" [Quran 2:183]. Not every verse has a specific occasion for its revelation, and many rulings in the Quran were ordained initially without one.
