Shah Ismail Gazi was a renowned Islamic preacher in Bengal. It is believed that during the reign of Barbak Shah, he worked in various parts of Northern Bengal for the expansion of the Muslim state and the propagation of Islam. The shrine is named after him.

Legend has it that Shah Ismail Gazi was a descendant of the Prophet Muhammad and was born in Mecca, where he grew up and received education. He came to India to spread Islam. During the reign of Barbak Shah (1459-1474 AD), he established himself as a well-known Sufi warrior. According to popular folklore, he was executed by decapitation due to false charges. After his execution, his head was buried in Kantaduar, Rangpur, and his body was buried in Mandaran, Hooghly District. The shrine was built in his honor.^{[citation needed]}

The dargah is situated atop a mound about five meters high, constructed from ancient bricks and stones. At the top of the mound, there is a small, dilapidated structure with no roof, measuring about 7 meters in length and 5 meters in width. The south wall has a door. This is an ancient structure dating back to the Hindu-Buddhist period.^[1]
