You'll have to re-add the account with the `useradd` command or restore /etc/passwd and /etc/shadow from backups (if you are using backups).

There's no such thing as "recovery". Once deleted, you have to re-create it. That's the easiest way to go about it.

Hopefully the account was deleted without -r. So ur lucky and the user's homedir is still there. Just create a user with the homedir pointing to the old directory (eg /home/users/xxx)
