Reciting two Surahs in one rakaat of a fardh salaah

Q: Can we read two (2) separate Surahs in one rakat of a farz namaaz? For example, I read Surah Kafiroon and Surah Ikhlaas in the first rakaat of Fajr farz namaaz. 

Bismillaah

A: It is better not to do this.

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