Performing the fardh of fajr only due to time constraints

Q: Sometimes when I wake up for fajr, I wake up a little late and the time of fajr is nearly on its end. So in that circumstance can I pray only fardh? Because if I pray Sunnah, then to complete my fardh I have to rush my prayer.

A: Rather read your fardh correctly.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
