Is the widely circulated supplication for studying: "O Allah, I ask You for the understanding of the prophets, the memory of the messengers, and the closeness of the angels. O Allah, I ask You to make our tongues full of Your remembrance, our hearts full of Your obedience, and our innermost thoughts full of Your fear. Verily, You are capable of whatever You wish," established from the Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, or the righteous predecessors, or is it an innovation, and what is the ruling on repeating it if it is an innovation?

This supplication has not been reported from the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, nor from the Salaf. Designating it for study time is an innovation. What is legislated for a Muslim is to seek Allah's help and supplicate to Him with what suits his need. Supplication is an act of worship to Allah, and thus it is only valid by divine command. A Muslim should supplicate to Allah for the facilitation of matters and an increase in knowledge without designating innovative supplications for every situation.

As for the saying "إنك على ما تشاء قدير" (Indeed, You are capable of what You will) at the end of a supplication, it is not recommended. This is because when Allah describes Himself with power, He does not restrict it with His will. This is contrary to the guidance of the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him. Furthermore, the restriction may imply limiting Allah's power to only what He wills, which could be misunderstood as a deficiency in power, whereas Allah's power is general and encompasses everything.
