While the verses detailing the complete regulations for fasting are concentrated in Surah Al-Baqarah, references to fasting are often limited to instances requiring expiation.

The Quran, in Surah A'raf, compares such individuals to livestock, and even worse, as animals are created for a specific purpose, while these individuals squander their human potential.
