nginx rewrite question

I'm new to nginx and I got a rewrite problem here:

I want to permanently redirect http://domain1.com/abc.php to http://domain2.com,

but I want to keep http://domain1.com/abc.php?param=value, I've tried put 

rewrite ^/abc\.php$ http://domain2.com last;

which works for http://domain1.com/abc.php, unfortunately it rewrites everything that starts with the '/abc.php', I'm really confused why this is happening, any ideas?

Thanks in advance.

Nginx rewrites generally don't "see" the query string as part of the URI, which is why your existing rewrite isn't working - to Nginx it's always ^/abc\.php$ whether there's a query string or not.

Instead, I'd try this (adapted from the documentation):

if ($args !~ param=value) {
  rewrite ^/abc\.php$ http://domain2.com permanent;
}

But be aware that if is evil.
