i recently just found my ipad from 5 years ago and i forgot about all the memories on it. when i found the ipad is was dead i supposed. then for 3 hours i put it in the charger to get to a reasonable percentage. when i went to go check back on it it was still shut off. i tried using different chargers and blocks but it still won’t charge. i even tried to hard reset it but nothing works. please help 🙏
iPad mini (1st generation)
As described, your iPad battery may have failed due to neglect. If not periodically recharged, the rechargeable Li-ion battery may enter a state known as deep-discharge - this being a condition from which the battery cannot recover. If the battery has failed, the iPad may unexpectedly turn-off - or may not successfully boot to a running state even when connected to its Power Adapter.
Are you able to use the iPad while remaining connected to your Power Adapter? If yes, while monitoring the indicated battery state, disconnect the Power Adapter; if the indicated battery state suddenly falls, or the iPad shuts-off, this test demonstrates the iPad battery having reached the end of its usable life:

If you continue to experience difficulties, you will would be best advised to visit the Genius Bar at your local Apple Store or Apple Authorised Service Provider (AASP) - where the technicians will be able to test and assess your iPad:
if it was me then I would leave it at the charger the night over and if it still did not work then I would view the battery being defect
