Condemning Manchester Incident
Recently two thugs assaulted multiple Police officers at the Airport.. they happened to be from Pakistani/Muslim background. I totally condemn their act. It goes against Islam. I can see majority of the comments by Britishers are stereotyping and blaming “Islam” as the cause of this.. I live in the UK and I’m anticipating potential debates (whether online or in person) in this regard.. and I needed explicit Qur’an Ayaat that condemn such acts.
So far I have those that forbid killing (but couldn’t find specifically fighting/violence/hitting?) and 60:8,9 is related but it’s only implying how Allah does not forbid us to be kind to them. It’s not explicitly stopping one to be violent to them.
Can you please help me find more that are more relevant to this scenario?
I am not interested in Hadith references because the islamophobes would throw at me those other “Sahih” hadiths that say the opposite. (I cannot defend this particular argument/allegation with hadiths). I only need Qur’anic Ayaat.
JazakAllah khair!

First of all, things are still under investigation. Jumping to conclusions doesnt help. Let the investigation complete then start condemning.
Secondly Manchester police officers have been investigated for a long time due to discriminatory behaviour. Please see https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/article/2024/jul/25/manchester-airport-police-kick-incident-former-senior-met-officer

Again above link donot prove innocence of the guy beaten. I am just giving you a perspective only. Since the viral video donot show complete event. So we must remain neutral.
Thirdly, you can never satisfy islamophobes, no matter how hard you try. Though they may have good reason because muslim community as a whole donot portray ideal picture.
Lastly, Quran is meant to be understood in the way God desires. Not to please our whims. These verses may be relevant not completely though 2:190, 5:8, 3:186, 60:8
Btw islamophobes will give quranic verses which encourage voilence so no matter if its hadith or Quran. The response will be same
