Is the prayer of istikharah among those with specific causes

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, is the prayer of istikharah one of the prayers with a cause, such that it is prayed in the times of prohibition?

Answer:
No, it is not one of the prayers with a cause. The prayers with a cause are, for example, the two rak'ahs of tawaf, the greeting of the mosque, and the sunnah of wudu'. These are the prayers with a cause.
