LinkedIn share button removing the QueryString from the URL

Trying to create a share to LinkedIn button which points to a page with querystring at the end.

1. As you can see, the code contains the URL:

   • https://stackoverflow.com/users/8757883/akber-iqbal?tab=summary

2. but upon going to the LinkedIn site, the URL becomes:

   • https://stackoverflow.com/users/8757883/akber-iqbal?tab

3. the querystring part is removed, the question: Is there anyway to go around this issue?

a i {color:#000}

<link rel="stylesheet" href="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/font-awesome/4.7.0/css/font-awesome.min.css">
<a href="https://www.linkedin.com/shareArticle?mini=true&url=https://stackoverflow.com/users/8757883/akber-iqbal?tab=summary">
<i class="fa fa-linkedin-square" style="font-size:36px"></i>
</a>

Update 2020 : Linkedin has updated its sharing url , so query parameters not supported in URL

https://www.linkedin.com/sharing/share-offsite/?url=URL_HERE
