Fardh-qaza over sunnah muwakkadah priority?

Answered as per Hanafi Fiqh by Darulifta-Deoband.com
I have many thousands of prayers remaining. Can I say these prayers instead of saying the sunnah muwakkadah daily? What I mean is that will fardh-qaza prayers have priority over sunnah muwakkadah?

بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم

(Fatwa: 1217/1115/N=9/1434)

You should perform the missed fardh salah as well the sunnah muwakkadah. You should not miss the daily sunnah muwakkadah due to the missed salah; otherwise you will have to bear the sin of forsaking sunnah muwakkadah without any valid reason. Yes, you may leave other nafl salah.

Allah knows Best!
