Ishaq was born in 1883 CE to a Bengali Muslim family in Feni, Noakhali District, Bengal Presidency. [1] He received his primary religious education from the local religious institution. Then he got admitted into an 'alim course in Comilla. [1] Later, he travelled to Makkah where he got admitted into the Madrasah as-Sawlatiyah. [1] He studied Islamic studies and Arabic for eleven years in that institution, under Shaykhu'd-Dal'ail Abdul Haqq Muhajir Makki who treated him like his adopted son. [1] Later, he was appointed as a teacher of that madrasa. He got khilafat from his teacher and returned to his own country. [1]

Ishaq wrote an Urdu book titled Ta'lim-e-Haqqani Wa Fuyud-e-Ishaqi. [1] In that book he described about Sufi problems, zikr and mediation. He kept himself away from active politics but supported the independence movement of Jamiat Ulema-e-Hind. [1]
