Using a single functional form which is able to represent several different classes of statistical distributions, we introduce a preliminary study of the ferromagnetic Ising model on the cubic lattices under the influence of non-Gaussian local external magnetic field. Specifically, depending on the value of the tail parameter, $\tau $ ($\tau < 3$), we assign a quenched random field that can be platykurtic (sub-Gaussian) or leptokurtic (fat-tailed) form. For $\tau< 5/3$, such distributions have finite standard deviation and they are either the Student-$t$ ($1< \tau< 5/3$) or the $r$-distribution ($\tau< 1$) extended to all plausible real degrees of freedom with the Gaussian being retrieved in the limit $\tau \rightarrow 1$. Otherwise, the distribution has got the same asymptotic power-law behaviour as the $\alpha$-stable L\'{e}vy distribution with $\alpha = (3 - \tau)/(\tau - 1)$. The uniform distribution is achieved in the limit $\tau \rightarrow \infty$. Our results purport the existence of ferromagnetic order at finite temperatures for all the studied values of $\tau$ with some mean-field predictions surviving in the three-dimensional case.
