In 1975, she married Ali-Akbar Nabavi-Nuri, a fellow MEK member. Nabavi-Nuri was killed in action in 1976. She married Massoud Rajavi, leader of the MEK in summer 1980.[1]
In 1980, she unsuccessfully ran for a seat in 1980 parliamentary election.
On 8 February 1982, the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps raided the safe house of Rabiei in northern Tehran and after a three-hour firefight, she was killed along with other MEK members including Mousa Khiabani and his wife Azar Rezaei, among others.[2] Her son Mostafa survived and was later exiled to Paris.
The MEK named Camp Ashraf after her.[3]
