Solution

Try to follow the syntax given in the official laravel documentation for the handle method

public function handle($request, Closure $next)
    {
        if ($request->input('age') < 200)
        {
            return redirect('home');
        }
 
        return $next($request);
    }

Use only $request variable without type hinting as shown in the example above and see if everything works.

AH!! That was it, @faisal ! I totally overlooked that inconsistency and never would have guessed that simple type hinting would break that request object.

Thank you!
