Using the Find My app you can erase the device off your Apple ID https://support.apple.com/en-ca/HT210515#erasedevice

Hi samar235!

Yes, once you erase the iPad off Find My, everything is deleted inluded all personal information such as photos, credit cards and apps. It is reset to when it was first bought with nothing on it (Factory Reset)

When your iPad is erased, samar235, using Find My, it erases it completely, though I believe it continues to be tied to your Apple ID, and remains Activation Locked.

Out of curiosity, did Find My confirm the erasure, or is the operation shown as pending.

(We lost an iPad, quite a while ago. The erasure is still shown as pending.)
