Is there a du’aa’ for memorizing the Qur’aan?

Question: 10192

Is there a du’aa’ for memorizing the Qur’aan, and what is the way to memorize it?

Praise be to Allah, and peace and blessings be upon the Messenger of Allah and his family.

I do not know of any du’aa’ for memorizing Qur’aan, except
one hadeeth. It was narrated that the Prophet

(peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) taught it to ‘Ali ibn Abi
Taalib (may Allaah be pleased with him), but there is some dispute as
to how sound it is. Ibn Katheer said concerning it: it is ghareeb, rather
munkar (i.e., it is not saheeh).

 Al-Sayyid Muhammad Ridaa said, commenting on it:
its style is that of the fabricated reports, not the style of the most
eloquent of mankind, Muhammad

(peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) or the style of ‘Ali ibn
Abi Taalib (may Allaah be pleased with him), nor the style of their
age.

 Al-Dhahabi said this is a shaadhdh (odd) munkar
hadeeth.
