We guys are users like you in this user-to-user forum. So we have not removed any contacts, and actually Apple didn’t either. Contacts exist on email servers; the Contacts app on your iPhone syncs to the email servers, so the most likely cause is either you deleted the email account that you sync contacts to, or you changed to password for it and did not update the password on your iPhone.
