automatically failing custom request in laravel

I have created a custom request that needs to check a variable before proceeding forward. This is my CustomRequest and have something like this

class CustomRequest extends FormRequest
{

    public function rules(){
        if ($variable == "abc") {
            return [
                "method"             => [
                    "required",
                    "in:mail",
                ]
            ];
        }
    }

}

And in my controller it is 

public function addMethod(CustomRequest $request)
{
    //
}

I want that if the $variable is not equal to abc it just automatically fails and redirects the user back with message. I don't know how to do that.

Is there any possibility to achieve such functionality?

Just make a middleware, put it in the Kernel so that it can be applied for all routes and inside the middleware, you can check the variable value and take appropriate action.

Add following function in your custom form request class.

public function authorize()
{
    return true;
}

Then it will work.

By default, it is set to false and we have to set it true manually.
