Hii Imtiaz Pasha
Try The Below Trigger
Number__c  is Number Field In lead object in My Org You Can Replace The Field Want To Restrict From Duplication

Trigger preventDuplication on Lead(before insert, before update) {
Set<string> numSet = new Set <string>() ;
If (trigger.IsBefore) {
    If(trigger. Is Insert || trigger.IsUpdate){
        For(lead led: trigger.new){
                  numSet.add(led.Number__c);
               } 
           } 
      } 

List<Lead> lstled = [select Id, Number__c from Lead where Number__c in :numSet];

For(Lead led2 : trigger.new){
   If(lstled.size()>0){
       led2.Number__c.adderror('duplicate Number found');
   }
​​​​​​}
Please Mark It As Best Answer If It Helps
