At the same time he together with Tuan Haji Othman bin Haji Mohammad, the Chief Inspector of Religious Schools in Johor were invited by Sultan Omar Ali Saifuddien III to review the proposal to establish a religious school in Brunei.[4]

Ismail was one of the two individuals tasked with researching the idea for the opening of a religious school in Brunei by touring a number of Malay and English-language institutions and submitting a written report. The investigation came to the conclusion that Brunei's regular religious instruction, which is taught in Malay and English schools, is insufficient since it only receives a half-hour each week. Naturally, as a result of this candid assessment, the Sultan allowed the creation of the first religious school in Brunei in September 1956.[5]

Ismail then went back to Johor as he was appointed as the Deputy Mufti of Johor, then became the kadhi of Pontian District in 1957, acting Grand Kadhi for Johor in 1958 and subsequently becoming Johor's Kadhi Besar in 1958. He was once more lent to Brunei by the Johor government on 1 April 1962 for a three-year term as State Mufti of the Brunei Government until 31 March 1965, due to the strong and cordial relationships between the late Sultan Omar Ali Saifuddien III and Sultan Ibrahim of Johor.[6] His ties to Brunei began to deepen and strengthen about the time that religious schools were first established there.[5] He became the Deputy Mufti of Hojor up until his retirement on 1 January 1967, where he returned to Brunei and continued serving as the State Mufti of Brunei.[4]
