Based on oral history interviews with past and present leaders ( n = 12) of the American Muslim Health Professionals (AMHP), this article examines the meanings of faith and identity in the multiple roles this faith-based organization plays. AMHP connects and develops Muslim health leaders, connects Muslim communities to public health policy and health promotion, and partners with interfaith and government agencies. The evolution of AMHP over the past two decades from a networking listserv to a leading American Muslim voice at the national level provides a case study of Muslim civic contributions to the health of the larger US society. The network provides a third space for many second-generation immigrant American Muslims to debate the meaning of American Muslim-ness and to mobilize resources and enact values from their religious tradition to engage key public health issues with other Muslim organizations, interfaith groups, and government agencies
