Sources of data were obtained from BPS Aceh, Baitul Mal Aceh and the Regional Government processed by the Regional Financial Data Sub-Directorate, Directorate of EPIKD from 2009-2018. The method of research analysis was carried out using panel data regression analysis and MRA to examine the effect of zakat and regional spending on poverty reduction and to examine the role of regional spending in moderating the relationship between zakat and poverty in Aceh Province. The results showed; (1) zakat has a negative and significant effect on poverty reduction; (2) BPD has a negative and significant effect on poverty reduction; (3) MDR is negative and not significant to the relationship between zakat and poverty, which means that BPD is only an independent variable but not a moderating variable on the relationship between zakat and poverty
