The questioner : Shaykh, may Allah reward you. What are the matters that facilitate the seeking of knowledge?

A person should intend by seeking knowledge to preserve the Shari'ah of Allah (Mighty and Majestic) and to benefit from it through action, to spread it among people, and to call people to it. If a person visualizes these great acts of worship and the reward that follows them, this is what facilitates the seeking of knowledge.
Also, what facilitates the seeking of knowledge is that Allah makes it easy for the student to have companions who help and support him, and that Allah makes it easy for everyone to have a teacher who clarifies and explains. For clarification and explanation are what energize the student of knowledge.
And what facilitates the seeking of knowledge is having free time, meaning that a person should not have social problems or problems with his family, and that he should have what sustains him. These are among the causes. There may be other causes as well, but these are among the causes. Yes.
