Prioritizing the memorization of the Qur'an and caring for it over the texts

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The honorable Shaykh! A young man wants to seek knowledge: Is it better for him to memorize the Qur'an first, or should he start memorizing the texts and take a little of the Qur'an at a time?
I see that he should combine both, giving the greater share to the Qur'an. The student of knowledge starts with the Qur'an first, before anything else, memorizing it and understanding its meaning; and he allocates part of his time to the other sciences.
