Hi Tanvirshaq,

To make sure we're on the same page, you're attempting to add your iCloud email address in the Mail app? Or are you prompted when opening mail to enter your Apple ID password?

On iPhone, you generally would not login to the Mail app directly for Apple ID/iCloud Mail. Instead, under Settings > [your name] > iCloud > iCloud Mail, ensure that is toggled on.

That will then cause your iCloud mail to show in the Mail app.

See more info here: Set up iCloud Mail on all your devices - Apple Support

Cheers!
