Ismaʿīl ibn ʿĪsā ibn Mūsā al-Hāshimī (Arabic: إسماعيل بن عيسى بن موسى الهاشمي) was an Abbasid personage and governor of Egypt.

The son of Isa ibn Musa, he was appointed to Egypt by his second cousin Harun al-Rashid (r. 786–809) in 798. After an administration lasting for a few months, he was dismissed and replaced with al-Layth ibn al-Fadl.

Notes

  1. Ibn Taghribirdi 1930, p. 109 gives his full name as "Isma'il ibn Isa ibn Musa ibn Muhammad ibn Ali ibn Abdallah ibn Ali(?) ibn al-Abbas al-Abbasi al-Hashimi." See also Ibn Qutaybah n.d., p. 376.
  2. Al-Kindi 1912, pp. 138–39; Ibn Taghribirdi 1930, p. 109. Khalifah ibn Khayyat 1985, p. 464 does not mention him as a governor. See also Bosworth 1989, p. 30 n. 124.
