How and when to use an abstract class

This is my test program in Java. I want to know how much abstract class is more important here and why we use abstract class for this.

Is it a mandatory or is it best method; if so how?

class Shape1 {
    int i = 1;
    void draw() {
        System.out.println("this is shape:" + i);
    }
}

class Shape2 {
    int i = 4;
    void draw() {
        System.out.println("this is shape2:" + i);
    }
}


class Shape {
    public static void main(String args[]) {
        Shape1 s1 = new Shape1();
        s1.draw();

        Shape2 s2 = new Shape2();
        s2.draw();
    }
}
