Khazali has articulated conservative positions on women’s roles and cultural policies in society. In past interviews, she emphasized traditional concepts of family and modesty, reflecting broader conservative views about gender roles and cultural norms. In addition to her political involvement, records indicate the existence of a Kobra Khazali with an academic profile associated with Islamic studies and education at Tehran University of Medical Sciences, where she is listed in faculty directories. This suggests she may also have scholarly credentials in Islamic education or related fields.
Some media and commentators have highlighted that her children live abroad, including in the United States, leading to public criticism by reform-oriented and diaspora voices over perceived contradictions between her conservative policy stances and her family’s life choices. Activist circles and petition campaigns have spotlighted her role in shaping policies that affect women’s rights and freedoms, especially against the backdrop of wider debates on compulsory hijab enforcement, women’s autonomy, and state control of social life.
