is it illegal to use someone else's facebook photo on another forum?

my friend uses a forum to discuss news but there is a troll that is always calling insults and starting drama. so my friend decided to teach him a lesson. he copied his facebook photo and posted it on the new forum on his own profile. the troll saw it and got mad and is saying they are going to sue my friend. it was only posted for 20 minutes then my friend took it down. but the troll is lieing by trying to say my friend hacked into their facebook account which is not true. you do not have to hack to copy a photo. my friend is not a hacker and don't even know how to do that. What can I tell my friend? my friend is worried now that they might try to sue him.
the "troll" is of course trying to cause drama and say it is a copyrighted personal photo (yea right) my friend only put it on his own profile and did not say anything about it. then took it down in 20 minutes. the troll saw it though and has been crying about it ever since.
