If you think Edison invented the light bulb then yes something was stolen, otherwise no. The idea was already out there, there were many light bulbs in the market but he made the best one at the time.
Edison failed many times - no one knows how many - to make a filament for a light bulb that would last a long time. He did not invent the light bulb - he was working on a BETTER light bulb that would last longer.
