وَبَشَّرْنَـٰهُ بِإِسْحَـٰقَ نَبِيًّا مِّنَ ٱلصَّـٰلِحِينَ Qur’an As-Saffat (37:112)
Wabashsharn a hu biis ha qa nabiyyan mina a l ssa li h een a
And [in time] We gave him the glad tiding of Isaac, [who, too, would be] a prophet, one of the righteous;

We gave him the good news of Ishaq - a prophet - one of the righteous.
  - Muhammad Farooq-i-Azam Malik

We 'later' gave him good news of Isaac- a prophet, and one of the righteous.1
  - Mustafa Khattab

 The birth of Isaac is announced after the story of sacrifice. So this is a proof that the son who was going to be sacrificed was Ishmael, not Isaac. This is also supported by 11:71, where Sarah is told that she would give birth to Isaac, who would (reach adulthood and) have a son by the name of Jacob.

And We gave him tidings of the birth of Isaac, a Prophet of the righteous.

And We gave him the good news of Isaac a prophet one of the Righteous. 4105

Isaac was Abraham's second son, born of Sarah, when Abraham was 100 years of age. See n. 4101. He was also blessed and became the ancestor of the Jewish people. See next note.
