Almost impossible to tell unless you provide exact time, date and location! It could even be a smudge / mark on the camera sensor!

For me it's easy to guess but please consider the comment  Be aware that free planetarium like applications exist for future observations

Almost certainly Jupiter, if the following are true:

* The title of the image: Inked20190904\_194204.LI.jpg gives the
  accurate date and time of September 4 2019, 19:42:04.
* The orientation of the Moon in the image is such that the
  illuminated portion is on the right side of the image.
* The circled object is a planet or star, and brighter than any
  other nearby object to the moon at the stated time, and is roughly
  20° away from the Moon.

The Moon moves roughly 13° across the sky every 24 hours, so it's pretty close to the same region as the screenshot, assuming the local times are accurate. Jupiter's at apparent magnitude -1.78 in my screenshot, and the next brightest nearby object is to the moon the star Antares, which at magnitude +1.05, is significantly dimmer. Venus is brighter, of course, but at 7:45 PM on the stated date, it's sitting very close to the horizon, if it hasn't already set. Saturn would also be up at the time, but it's about 50° away from the Moon, and dimmer than Jupiter.
