Later on he contacted me when he got his phone back and that caused him so much trouble because he physically got hurt by his parents.What should I do they really hate me and he wants to spend his future with me? I mean how are we gonna have a future if his parents really hate me and I don't want something bad to happen to him. Also I forgot to tell you I'm a black girl and he's Cypriot Turkish.

OP, if you are not Muslim, but HE is, that's exactly the problem, according to his parents. Don't take this too lightly , in some ( note I said SOME ) Muslim communities that's an unsormountable hurdle, kids are not even allowed to make friends outside their religion, imagine dating .
It's going to be all uphill , and it gets worse the older you get, and the more serious the threat of a permanenet relationship becomes. Not saying this to discourage you- just so that you do not illude yourself that " it will get better with time " .

They see their kid having a relationship outside of their community and they see it as them bringing dishonour on their family.
Also he's a bit young to be talking about spending his future with you.
You will not be able to make his parents like you, so it's up to him to decide whether he stays with you or not against his families wishes.

His parents don't sound all the ticket to me tbh. You said he got hurt, did they beat him? Because if so you can report them to the police.
