1430. It was narrated from Yazid bin Abu 'Ubaid that Salamah bin Al-Akwa' used to offer the Duha prayer, and he would come to the pillar that was near the Mushaf.[1] I said to him: "Why do you not pray over there?" And I pointed to some corner of the mosque. He said: "I saw the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ seeking out this place." (Sahih)
1430 - حَدَّثَنَا يَعْقُوبُ بْنُ حُمَيْدِ بْنِ كَاسِبٍ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا الْمُغِيرَةُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ الْمَخْزُومِيُّ، عَنْ يَزِيدَ بْنِ أَبِي عُبَيْدٍ، عَنْ سَلَمَةَ بْنِ الْأَكْوَعِ، أَنَّهُ «كَانَ يَأْتِي إِلَى سُبْحَةِ الضُّحَى فَيَعْمِدُ إِلَى الْأُسْطُوَانَةِ، دُونَ الْمُصْحَفِ، فَيُصَلِّي قَرِيبًا مِنْهَا» ، فَأَقُولُ لَهُ: أَلَا تُصَلِّي هَاهُنَا؟ وَأُشِيرُ إِلَى بَعْضِ نَوَاحِي الْمَسْجِدِ، فَيَقُولُ: «إِنِّي رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَتَحَرَّى هَذَا الْمُقَامَ»

It is perfectly in order to try to pray at one's preferred place provided that it does not cause inconvenience to others, and nobody who is already in that place is made to move from there.
