The best thing that you can do is store the link where you want the
application to redirect_to in a later stage
and use it with the redirect_to syntax

eg:
session[:return_to] = request.fullpath (use this inside the controller
action where you would like to redirect to)
and then use
redirect_to session[:return_to]
