Wondering what kind of alarm you have set, and where you are trying to edit that:

Maybe a tap on edit actually turns that alarm off, (and allows the option to just change the time).


For "Clock: alarm:

Seems you are using iOS12 on your iPad: See: Set an alarm or bedtime schedule on iPad - Apple Support for tips.

Eg: It could be a "bedTime" reminder.

Turn off Bedtime reminders: Tap the Bedtime switch.


If it is not a :"Clock" alarm: Eg: Is a notification sound:

"To turn off notifications selectively for apps, go to Settings > Notifications > Siri Suggestions,

then turn off any app." Change notification settings on iPad - Apple Support
