Pls help me!

So basically I met a guy on insta. It was such a coincidence. For a straight week, we never lost communication, and we always felt this special connection between us. I told him that I’m gonna tell my family about him (btw am 17) and he told me he was excited. We wanted to keep things halal so that we don’t disappoint Allah SWT. In just one week,I felt like I knew this person forever. He was very respectful, caring, loving, and he never asked me anything bad that could lead to zina. He was very religious and the same age as me. He went umrah 3 times just last year because it felt like it was his second home. We always talked about marriage and how when we grow our connection stronger, we can talk about that more. We kept everything halal. Btw my mum has all my socials on her phone, so she checked my messages with him. I never deleted A SINGLE message because if I do, this will raise a red flag to my mum. She knew about it. Since day one, I told her that I wanted to talk to her about something very personal to me and we need to have a conversation. But the time never came. (Btw me and the guy never saw each other in person, because that’s haram) Yesterday, I was talking to him and my mum caught me. She took the phone and deleted all my socials and even told the guy, from my phone, that he should never text me. She started shouting at me and she told me that an a sl*t, wh*re, and all these horrible names. I know she read or chats, and she knows deep deep down that am not like that. She started being racist towards him and she told me that she lost trust in me. (I told the guy that my parents trust is over anything and if anything happens which could break it, I’ll leave him, and he loved me even more for that). She started shouting and hitting me with a water bottle in my face and arm. I didn’t move an inch, I didn’t even cry, not even flinch. I became numb. For the first time. Pls help me.

So sorry that happened to you😥 I'm 17 and also talking to this guy (not romantically) on Instagram, and my parents are very against me talking to people online, as there could be many bad people online that can do stuff with your personal details. However my parents don't know about all this.
Maybe try tell your parents you've not shared any personal / family details with the guy, so even if he's a 'bad' person (which I'm sure by your story he's not) he's not going to do anything harmful like stalking? And also tell your parents you've never planned on meeting the guy in person, so you'll be safe and theres no risk of kidnapping and physical harm(?) and whatever your parents are worried about
Tbh what your mom did was kind of physically abus1ve? im so sorry actually

He lives in the same city as I am. I never shared any serious information like where Ilive or my second name etc. he is very nice but my family is so against talking toguys online. Thank u tho 💝
