Taking money from someone who has entrusted you with it, without their permission, is not permissible. It is a betrayal of trust and a major sin. You must repent to Allah and return the money to its owner. The fact that you do not possess money does not waive this right from you; rather, it remains a debt upon you until you repay it.
