The process shown is only available on IOS 15 and later. If you still use the iOS 14 or earlier, follow these steps;

Launch Settings, then tap Do Not Disturb.

Next, activate the Do Not Disturb feature manually or fix a personalized schedule.

You can also activate this feature through the control center. Control Center > Crescent moon icon. You can tap and hold to edit the time frame.
