Is reading specific Surahs after the obligatory prayers with the intention of purifying the heart and avoiding its hardening considered an innovation (bid‘ah), knowing that no specific allocation of these Surahs to particular times has been reported from the Prophet?
Reciting the Qur’an is permissible at all times, so there is no harm in reciting parts of the Qur’an at specific times without believing in a virtue that has not been established by religious law. This is not considered an innovation (bid'ah).
