Transliteration:( Wa kaawa 'iba at raaba )
"And companions of equal young age."
This verse refers to the blessed companions (Azwaaj) that will be granted to the inmates of Paradise — namely:
The heavenly damsels (hoories) specially created for Paradise.
The believing wives of those righteous men who enter Paradise.
Even the believing wives of disbelievers from the world — if they themselves were believers — will be granted to righteous believers in Paradise.
All of these companions will be of equal youthful age, symbolizing both beauty and eternal freshness. There will be no aging, no illness, and no inequality in appearance or virtue among them.

Please refer to Surah Naba ayat 31 which provides the complete commentary from verse 31 through 36.
(78:33) and youthful maidens of like age,[20]
20. This may mean that they will be of equal age among themselves as well as that they will be of equal age with their husbands. This same theme has already occurred in (Surah Suad, Ayat 52) and (Surah Al-Waqiah, Ayat 37).
