His father was a Qazi in the city of Qandahar, as well as being a some-time minister〔Tareekh-e-Ahmadiyya (Sarhad) (of the Ahmadiyya in the North West Frontier ) by Qazi Muhammad Yousaf Farooqi ; Published: Manzoor e Aam Press, Qissa Khwani Bazar, Peshawar (1958). pp:8-21〕 during the reign of Shah Shujah Durrani (1785-1842), King of Afghanistan. He was a scholar of Arabic, Persian and Pashto, a good poet〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=A Dictionary of Pashto Language, by H G Raverty (1860) )〕 and a calligrapher.〔Tareekh-e-Ahmadiyya (Sarhad) (of the Ahmadiyya in the North West Frontier ) by Qazi Muhammad Yousaf Farooqi; Published: Manzoor e Aam Press, Qissa Khwani Bazar, Peshawar (1958). pp:8-21〕 He was a Pashto and Persian teacher to Captain (later Major) Henry George Raverty (1825-1906), assisting him in many of his works on the Pashto language.〔〔H G Raverty Teacher, Henry George Raverty〕 He converted to Ahmadiyya Islam in response to a vision in 1887. Ismail died on September 18, 1912, at Peshawar. ==Early life== Ismail was born in the house of a renowned religious scholar, a Qazi, in the city of Qandahar. Raised speaking Pashto, he became a scholar of Arabic, Persian and his native language, as well as being an Islamic jurist who was able to assist his father in his profession as a Qazi. According to his biographer, Qazi Muhammad Yousaf, he never married〔 He had an interest in Pashto and Persian poetry, writing his own poetry. Henry George Raverty mentioned his skill as both a poet and scholar〔“During the whole time I had the valuable assistance of a Molawi of the Ghalzi tribe, located in central Afghanistan in the District around Khelat-iGhalzi, and whose father was for some time Kazi of the city of Kandahar, in which office the Molawi, who is better acquainted with Pashto both theoretically and practically, than any other man I ever saw or heard of, assisted. His profound knowledge of Arabic—the foundation of all Muhammadan languages—and without which the situation of Kazi, in the western Capital of Afghanistan, could not have been held, together with the fact of his possessing no mean poetical powers, rendered him peculiarly fitted for a task of this kind, in which many works had to be examined and collated.” [A Dictionary of the Pushto Language of the Afghans, by H G Raverty, London, Williams and Norgate.
