Criticism
Jamiat has been widely criticized by many landlords, secularists, regionists, ethnic parties and military supported parties in Pakistan . Its stronghold in Karachi and Lahore educational institutes has led to many violent outbursts. One of the accusations made of Jamiat is that IJT portrays themselves as a student foundation but is mostly political directed by Jamaat-e-Islami (JI), one of dominant parties in Pakistan. Jamiat (IJT) and Jamat (JI) are two separate organizations and have disagreed on many occasions of political upheaval in Pakistan. The similar objective and the close ideology because of Maulana Mawdudi, Jamiat seems to be a student organization of Jamat e islami. The point of difference between both the parties are clear, and same ideology but difference in methods and policies clearly show that both parties are not linked to each another. Jamiat (IJT) is also criticised for spreading their eye-opening and counter-influencing literature against the west and secularism. Their slogans "Sabz hae, Sabz hae, Asia Sabz hae" means "Asia is Green" (Green is said as Islamic identification against Red of socialism) show their negligence to socialism and other non-Islamic ideologies.

Famous quotes containing the word criticism:
“The critic lives at second hand. He writes about. The poem, the novel, or the play must be given to him; criticism exists by the grace of other men’s genius. By virtue of style, criticism can itself become literature. But usually this occurs only when the writer is acting as critic of his own work or as outrider to his own poetics, when the criticism of Coleridge is work in progress or that of T.S. Eliot propaganda.”
—George Steiner (b. 1929)
“I consider criticism merely a preliminary excitement, a statement of things a writer has to clear up in his own head sometime or other, probably antecedent to writing; of no value unless it come to fruit in the created work later.”
—Ezra Pound (1885–1972)
“When you overpay small people you frighten them. They know that their merits or activities entitle them to no such sums as they are receiving. As a result their boss soars out of economic into magic significance. He becomes a source of blessings rather than wages. Criticism is sacrilege, doubt is heresy.”
—Ben Hecht (1893–1964)
