how to undo a deleted whatsapp contact?

To undo a deleted WhatsApp contact, restore it from your phone’s contacts backup (Google Contacts for Android or iCloud for iPhone). Once restored, it will automatically reappear in WhatsApp.

Tip: You can also check Google Contacts → Trash (within 30 days) and restore the deleted contact.
 
You can’t undo a deleted WhatsApp contact directly, just restore it from your phone’s contacts backup (Google Contacts/iCloud), and it will reappear in WhatsApp after syncing.
 
Using the contact service on your phone is the best way to retrieve a deleted contact. To get the number, check the Trash/Bin folder in your Google Contacts (Android) or restore contacts from a recent iCloud backup (iPhone). The contact will reappear in WhatsApp after it has been restored.
 
To undo a deleted WhatsApp contact, re-add the contact in your phone’s address book. Once saved, open WhatsApp, refresh your contacts, and the deleted contact will reappear in your chat list.
 
You usually can’t undo it directly in WhatsApp, but if the chat is still there you can re-save the number, or restore the contact from your phone’s backup—I’ve had to do that once and it worked fine.
 
When a WhatsApp contact is deleted, it can be restored by getting the number back to your phone's contacts from Google Contacts or iCloud, or by entering the phone number again manually and then updating WhatsApp contacts. If the contact was deleted prior to your last backup of the phone, you can get it back by restoring the backup; otherwise, it is not possible to recover it directly through WhatsApp.
 
You can undo a deleted WhatsApp contact by restoring it from your phone’s contacts. Re-add the number to your contact list, then open WhatsApp and tap Refresh in Contacts. If it was deleted earlier, restore your phone contacts or WhatsApp backup from before deletion.
 
You can't directly "undo" the removal of a WhatsApp contact unless the phone number is saved again in your phone's contacts; if you remember the number, just save it again in your Contacts app and it will automatically appear in WhatsApp, and if you don't remember it, look at old chats, call logs, or a previous Google/iCloud contacts backup to get the number.
