Oh that was a great mistake done by you friend because typing rm - rf & / would remove all your files and also your friend has given the command from root and so even your root file system is deleted. The best suggestion or alternative to resolve your problem is to go for reinstallation of you operating system and then try the backup of data from the latest backup stored in your backup procedures. All the best for you recovery and let us know if you need any other help in your recovery procedure.
