So it should be" Iraqi women and girls have been prevented from going to their schools or workplaces. By the fear of being assaulted or abducted." is that right or what do you think.
 
Delete the full stop after workplaces. It's all one sentence.
 
Please help tell me if there is are any grammatical or vocabulary issues/errors or vocabulary that makes make the sentence not clear unclear.
 
You could just start with Fear....
 
Perhaps:

Because they are afraid they might be abducted or sexually assaulted, Iraqi women do not go to school or work.

Or:

Fear of being abducted or sexually assaulted keeps Iraqi women from going to school or work.
