Refusing is not used in case of order only. It also used in help, asking, offering, etc. So @Sundar is true, ordering is correct.

Refusing obviously because obeying is the synonym of ordering.

Here it clearly says REFUSE is antonym of Obey! So answer is refusing.

I think refusing may be correct because if we don't obey certain things we refuse it.

When you ORDER someone. What do you expect. He should OBEY your ORDER.

Its Like.

ORDER - OBEY.

REQUEST - DENY.

And so on. I may be wrong correct me if so.

I think that obeying refers to abiding by someone's order or rules and regulations and refusing refers to refuse someone's order or rules and regulations.

So, in my point of view the authentic antonym of obeying is refusing.
