How to construct isogeny [i] such that [i]^2= -1?

Let E:y2=x3+x be an elliptic curve over a field K of characteristic p2,3. It is well known that the map [i] defined as below is an endomorphism on E and [i]2=1

[i]:(x,y)(x,iy)

I'm wondering how to construct this isogeny on sage when K is a finite field. If I can define an isogeny by giving its rational maps then I can simply compute a fourth root of unity i in K and let ϕ=(x,iy), but as I know of sage doesn't let you define an isogeny from rational maps?
