can i pass hiv to my wife only 4-5 hours after "if" i get infected

Doctor, a few days ago I had sex with a prostitute for no money. but at that time I was soft and not hard so I couldn't put it in and it fell out again so I stopped after 2-3 times and tried to insert it and came back (no scratches or scuffs, because of the penis because it's soft enough to fit every time). The head of the penis goes in and out.) At 5pm when I get home, I wash my hands with lifebouy hand sanitizer 2-3 times. Wash the whole body and penis with shower gel, at 9-10pm I have sex with my wife, so I have an infection rate from prostitutes "if any". And can I infect my wife after only 4-5 hours from going to sex with prostitutes?

If you had brief insertion, the odds are EXTREMELY low that you got HIV. However, the fact that she allows clients to have penetrative sex without a condom means that she is at higher risk for having HIV and STDs.  Again, brief penetration would be very low risk.

It sounds like you are very concerned about your wife, though, so you should abstain from having intercourse with her until you are tested for HIV and STDs, for her safety.

For future reference, washing your hands, body and penis with sanitizer or soap after a sexual encounter does not kill or prevent HIV or STDs.

do you give me ask? After only 4-5 hours from having sex with a prostitute to having sex with my wife, is that time enough for hiv to pass to my wife? I have hand and Oral sex, but wash it with soap and water, is there a risk of infecting my wife from there?
Oral sex and "hand sex" are not risks for HIV.  Even if you DID have a risk, you can't "wash off" HIV.  But you didn't have a risk, and no, you would not be infectious after 4-5 hours.
So if I have oral sex with a prostitute, after 4-5 hours of oral sex with my wife, it still can't be transmitted to my wife, right?
i only worry about HIV of prostitutes when i oral sex will get in my mouth and tongue and when i oral sex with wife it will spread to my wife.

If you didn't penetrate you had no risk. If you penetrated for a few seconds you probably had no risk. hiv is dead in air so you wasted your time washing or sanitizing dead virus afterwards.

a few days ago I had sex with a prostitute for no comdom. but if you can't get in or just put the tip of the penis in for a few seconds, it's okay, right?
I can't make it simpler than my previous post. All you have to do is figure if you penetrated and how long. Next time be smarter when you meet a prostitute that doesn't require her clients to use a condom.
So with 4-5 hours after I can be infected, will my wife catch me?

You probably should know to use a condom with a sex worker to protect your wife. Always. With regards to HIV, unless you actually penetrated, no risk.
