Which TMOS version are you on?

I just tested that iRule out in my home lab and it was working fine

iRule

root@(localhost)(cfg-sync Standalone)(Active)(/Common)(tmos) list ltm rule REDIRECT
ltm rule REDIRECT {
when HTTP_REQUEST {
    if { [HTTP::uri] contains "whatever/12345/something" } {
        HTTP::redirect "https://www.abc.com[HTTP::uri]" }
    }
}
