The sentence "I prevented him from going there" is grammatically correct because it follows the subject-verb-object pattern. "I" is the subject, "prevented" is the verb, "him" is the object, and "from going there" is a prepositional phrase indicating the action that was prevented. This sentence effectively communicates that the speaker stopped or hindered someone from going to a specific place.

About Prepositions
Prepositions link a noun or pronoun to the rest of the sentence, showing place, time, direction or relation. The difficulty is idiomatic rather than logical: English fixes particular prepositions to particular verbs and adjectives, so “good at,” “married to” and “differ from” have to be learned as units rather than reasoned out.
