BGP Metric

Folks
  I have quick question on the BGP Metric
   
  does the BGP by default take the metric of the IGP protocol and advertise it to the IBGP neighbors ?
   
  for example , i have domain where im running ISIS between say 3 routers (R1 R2 R3 ) , R3 is advertising certain route to R2 via ISIS
   
  assume R2 is running IBGP to R1 , R2 uses network command to advertise to R1 the route received from R3
   
  the question is , will R2 advertise that route to R1 with BGP metric equal to the ISIS metric by default ???
   
  this is what is happening in the scenario , but my previous knowledge was that it should not happen by default ..so which is correct ?
   
  thanks
