ligrev maybe you are now in the age that you can take care of your self & had a decent job & maybe you've been a good daughter to your parents, if I were in your position I'd rather leave and go on staying somewhere else & please if you can afford it bring your mother along with you before she will die due to beating of your father.

This is my opinion, you should stay back. Maybe your father has too much pressure and stress that he just don't know how to release it. You are his son. So i think it's time for you to play a role and have a nice talk with your father. You should tell him you feeling (so that he will know in case he doesn't know). Then in a good manner, ask im if he has any problem recently that make him so stress.
If possible, you can also be a middle man to solve the problem. Ask your dad and mum about the reason they quarrel (maybe they have their own reason that you don't know). There is a Malaysian's Philosophy "Air Yang Dicincang Tidak Akan Putus". In direct translation, it means the water will never break apart no matter how you cut it. The water in the philosophy refers to the relationship between each member in the family. Your relationship with your family is something forever.
I wish you can solve the problem and have a happy family.
