I recently Downloaded Mandrake 9.1, My Friend wants it, Is it legal to burn it and Mail it to my friend ? or Would that GO against Copyright of Linux/GNU

I don't Want a long answer for all those people who spend time on them.  
                         I just want a yes / no answer

Thank You [ Yes I am a Noob to Linux ]
