Sahih Muslim 1508a (Book 20, Hadith 22) #10924
Taking Allies Without Consent

SUMMARY: It is not permissible to take someone as an ally without the consent of their previous master, and any actions taken by the person will not be accepted by Allah.

Abu Huraira (Allah be pleased with him) reported that Allah's Messenger said: He who takes anyone as his ally without the consent of his previous master, there will be the curse of Allah and that of His angels upon him, and neither, any obligatory act of his nor the supererogatory one will be accepted (by Allah).
حَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا يَعْقُوبُ، - يَعْنِي ابْنَ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ الْقَارِيَّ - عَنْ سُهَيْلٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ قَالَ ‏ "‏ مَنْ تَوَلَّى قَوْمًا بِغَيْرِ إِذْنِ مَوَالِيهِ فَعَلَيْهِ لَعْنَةُ اللَّهِ وَالْمَلاَئِكَةِ لاَ يُقْبَلُ مِنْهُ عَدْلٌ وَلاَ صَرْفٌ
