Is it prescribed to maintain the two rak'ahs before Maghrib?
It is better.
Q: Does one maintain them constantly?
A: The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said:

Pray before Maghrib, pray before Maghrib

صلُّوا قبل المغرب، صلُّوا قبل المغرب

Bulugh al-Maram 2:264

Then he said:

for whoever wishes

لمن شاء

So it is not obligatory, but it is for whoever wishes.
