Those Who Set the Ranks · Makkah · Juz 23 · Mushaf page 450 of 604

وَبَشَّرۡنَٰهُ بِإِسۡحَٰقَ نَبِيّٗا مِّنَ ٱلصَّٰلِحِينَ ١١٢

English translation (Saheeh International)

And We gave him good tidings of Isaac, a prophet from among the righteous.1

  1. - This verifies that the firstborn son who was to be sacrificed was Ishmael and not Isaac, as claimed by the Jews and Christians.

Brief commentary

And I gave him glad tidings of another son who would become a Prophet and a pious servant: he was Isaac. It was another reward for his obedience to Allah by resolving to slaughter his only son, Ishmael.
