Is meeting online on Thursday to distribute and read parts of the Qur’an considered a Bid‘ah (innovation)? And how can innovation be avoided in this Khatmah (completion of reading the Qur'an) if it is an innovation?
Reciting the Qur'an is one of the greatest acts of devotion. Gathering for it is permissible, whether directly or through modern communication methods. Designating Thursday for this is fine if it's an agreement due to external circumstances, but if it's for the sake of the day itself, then it is an innovation (bid'ah).
