I know that Muslim people pray quite often everyday
Like 5 or 6 times...? Idk
But anyway
I heard that there's a certain "dawn prayer", "sunrise prayer", "noon prayer", etc.
What do those prayers consist of in detail ; in other words, what's said in the prayers for each time in the day?

It contains of Praising God, seeking His forgiveness, praying for peace on the Prophet and his family, reciting verses from the Qur'an, etc. And it is done 5 times a day and the prayer of all times is same except the number of repetitions (rakat) changes. dawn prayer has 2 repetitions, noon prayer has 4, etc.

During the times of the calls to prayer, the Muslims normally recite predetermined parts of the Qur'an, their scriptures.

1 - Morning prayer [Salat-ul-fajr] consists of four rakats. First, two rakats of the sunnat prayer are performed. Then two rakats of the fard prayer are performed. The sunnat (the first two rakats) is very important. Some scholars classify it as wajib.



2 - Early afternoon prayer [Salat-uz-zuhr] consists of ten rakats, the initial sunnat consisting of four rakats, the fard consisting of four rakats, and the final sunnat consisting of two rakats. The early afternoon prayer is performed in this order.



3 - Late afternoon prayer [Salat-ul-'asr] consists of eight rakats. First the sunnat, which consists of four rakats, and then the fard, which consists of four rakats, are performed.



4 - Evening prayer [Salat-ul-maghrib] contains five rakats. First the fard, which is composed of three rakats, then the sunnat, consisting of two rakats, are performed.



5 - Night prayer [Salat-ul-'isha] consists of thirteen rakats. The initial sunnat contains four rakats. The fard also contains four rakats. But the final sunnat has two rakats, while the Witr prayer has three rakats.
