What is the belief of the people of the Sunnah and the community regarding the Messiah al-Dajjal?

Question:
What is the belief of the people of the Sunnah and the community regarding the Messiah al-Dajjal? Is he the one about whom the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) heard, or the one about whom he intended to hear something, or is he a different man? Please inform us, may Allah reward you.

Answer:
The Messiah al-Dajjal: The belief of the people of the Sunnah and the community regarding him is what the authentic hadiths from the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) have brought: that he is a reality, and that he will emerge in the last of time. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: . And our Prophet warned the Ummah about him, and said about him what no other has said. He is the Messiah of the right eye, as if it were a floating grape. He will be in the last of time, remaining on the earth for forty days: a day like a month, a day like a year, a day like a week, and the remaining days like our days. Written between his eyes is "Kafir" (disbeliever), kaf, fa, ra, which every believer reads, whether literate or illiterate.
So he is a reality, and his existence is a reality that must occur, but he is the most lying of people and the most disbelieving of people—we seek refuge in Allah. For this reason, he was named al-Dajjal because of the abundance of his lying. He is a disbeliever who claims to be a prophet, then claims to be the Lord of the worlds. He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: .
So al-Dajjal is a factual reality that will occur in the last of time, and his time is not far off, and Allah knows best. One should beware of his trial. Allah has prescribed for us to seek refuge in Allah from his trial at the end of every prayer: from the trial of the Messiah al-Dajjal. He will be in the last of time, and Allah has forbidden him from entering Makkah and al-Madinah, but he will commit corruption on the earth and traverse the land. And Allah (Exalted and Majestic is He) protects from him whom He wills of His servants. So whoever encounters him should recite for him the first ten verses from the beginning of Surah al-Kahf and the last ten verses from the end of Surah al-Kahf—the ten verses; for they are among the means of safety from his evil, as came in the authentic hadith from the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him). And let him beware of his proximity and keep away from him, perhaps he will be saved from his evil. We ask Allah for safety.

Q: And Ibn Sayyad, O Shaykh?
The Shaykh: As for the one whom the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) encountered, he was Ibn Sayyad, also known as Ibn Sayyad. He is not the Dajjal. This is why, when 'Umar intended to kill him, he said: . It is well known that he is on one of the islands, waiting to be permitted to come out. He is from the descendants of Adam, and he will emerge at the time that Allah has decreed for him .

Q: Is it al-Masiyyakh or al-Masih?
The Shaykh: Al-Masih with the letter haa, like Ibn Maryam; because he wipes the world, he passes over the earth. And some of them said: al-Masiyyakh with the letter kha, but the correct is with the haa, like al-Masih ibn Maryam.
