In 2015, he said women should be denied working in stores and offices. In 2019, he made municipality of Isfahan to deny women access to bicycles legally shutting down two city bicycle stations.

In 2016, he claimed that the act of women taking pictures of themselves in the Zayanderud river contributed to drought in said river.

He is critical of the possible changing of the supreme leader position to the council.

On October 1, 2020, while meeting with the NAJA and the Intelligence Ministry of Iran, he believes that law enforcement should make, "the life of the unveiled unsafe". This has raised concerns for repeated Acid attacks on women in Isfahan.
