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:
“Unless criticism refuses to take itself quite so seriously or at least to permit its readers not to, it will inevitably continue to reflect the finicky canons of the genteel tradition and the depressing pieties of the Culture Religion of Modernism.”
—Leslie Fiedler (b. 1917)
“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)
“Like speaks to like only; labor to labor, philosophy to philosophy, criticism to criticism, poetry to poetry. Literature speaks how much still to the past, how little to the future, how much to the East, how little to the West.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
