how can I create a home directory in Linux?

Question

I have deleted some directories using rm -rf dir.name. But then when I wanted to open a new terminal it was not opening. I rebooted the system. Afterwards when I tried to login it's giving some error like ur home directory is /home/dir.name but it doesn't appear to exist. so how can I get rid of this problem.

Thanks,
