You need to have the right to use the GRANT sql-function in the database
http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/grant.html
But as everyone else already said, you won't.
You could make a "wrapper" php-script that your friend can call, which does
the sql queries for him on your database. But this will be a security problem
for you and will make your friends php-scripts a bit harder to write.
