It is not forbidden to use any other sources but you can cite it and if you really appreciate the work of your friend you could tell that. Because creating a post you are earning Steem with he work of others. Many artists are happy when they work is used but not many happy when they know that others can earn with their work.

For example we just found a case when someone used an Identity of other Artist and posted with her name earning Steem. The original Author had no idea. That is why we are cautious because that can ruin the reputation of Steem blockchain if we close our eyes to such cases.

You can see in this post about stolen Identity:

Hey @art-venture, very glad to see you helping new comers :)
I assure you that @vvarishayy has taken permission from the original author(who knows about Steemit )

But if it is taken from Internet then you should cite the reference source and make sure it is not copywright

It has not been taken from the Internet too.
