    MFMessageComposeViewController *picker = [[MFMessageComposeViewController alloc] init];
    picker.messageComposeDelegate = self;

    picker.recipients = [NSArray arrayWithObject:@"1234567890"];  
    picker.body = @"I am at %@";

    [self presentModalViewController:picker animated:YES];
    [picker release];

When we are using MFMessageComposeViewController, then it automatically gives the link of contacts. So no need of AddressBookUI Framework required in this case. In MFMessagecomposeViewController, contacts have to be added by clicking the “+” button on the right side of the add recipients field.
