Khurto Hajji Ismail was the Baba Sheikh of the Yazidis until his death in 2020. He held this position since 2007. He lived in Ain Sifni, Iraq. He played an important role in reintegrating Yezidi society by helping the community avoid feuds and reintegrating thousands of Yazidi women and girls rescued from ISIS slavery and by declaring that all those who had been forced to convert to Islam should be accepted back into the Yezidi community. He died on 1 October 2020 in a hospital in Erbil, aged 87
