    If you need 404 error response then try adding ErrorDocument line

    ErrorDocument 404 /error.php

    It will show /error.php file when /ahjgbhjkllghfd is accessed.

    All together might be this

    RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^(.*?)index.php$ /$1 [R=301,NC]

ErrorDocument 404 /error.php
