All praise is due to Allāh, and may the peace and blessings of Allāh be upon His Messenger Muhammad, his family, his Companions and all those who follow their path precisely.
Indeed, the best of speech is the Speech of Allāh, the best of guidance is the guidance of the Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) and the worst of all affairs are the newly introduced matters into the Religion (for which there is no textual proof) for every newly introduced matter is an innovation, every innovation is misguidance and every misguidance leads to the Hellfire.
To proceed:
Ahlus-Sunnah wal-Jamā’ah believe that the False Messiah, the Anti-Christ, the Masīh Ad-Dajjāl will emerge and spread his tribulation across the earth. He will be one-eyed and the word kāfir will be written between his eyes. We believe that he exists and we believe in the authentic ahādeeth reported by the scholars of Hadeeth about him, that Jesus the son of Mary will descend and kill him at Ludd (Lod). Bukhāri and Muslim reported from Anas that Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) said: “There was not a Prophet sent by Allah except that he warned his people from the Al-A’war Ad-Dajjāl, the One-eyed Liar. Indeed, he is one-eyed and your Lord is not one-eyed. There will be written between his eyes, the word kāfir.” (Bukhāri 7131, Muslim 2933) The ahādeeth concerning the Dajjāl are mutawātirah, that is, they are narrated by a multitude of narrators at every level of the chain of narration such that they could never have gathered to invent a lie, so its authenticity is beyond doubt.
Shaikh Al-Albāni (rahimahullāh) stated, “Know, that the ahādeeth concerning the Dajjāl and the descent of Jesus (ﷺ) are mutawātirah, necessitating that one believes in them. Do not be deceived by the one who claims these narrations are ahād (i.e. less than mutawātirah) because those who say that are ignorant of this science. There is not among them one who has followed up these chains of transmission, for if they had they would have realised that they are mutawātirah just as has been stated by the great scholars of this science, such as Ibn Hajr and others. It is truly unfortunate that some have felt bold enough to speak about an affair that they have no expertise in. This is even more so about an affair that is connected to religion and ‘Aqeedah.” (Sharh Al-‘Aqeedah At-Tahāwiyyah, p. 501)

Thawbaan narrated that the Prophet (salallaahu ‘alaihi wassallam) said: “The Hour will not be established until tribes of my Ummah unite with the idolaters, and until they worship idols. And there will be thirty liars (kadhdhaboon) in my Ummah,each of them claiming that he is a Prophet. And I am the last of the Prophets, there is no Prophet after me.” (Tirmidhi, no. 2219 Saheeh)
