Allah Created Sin for the Sake of Forgiveness

Abu Sirma reported that when the time of the death of Abu Ayyub Al-Ansari had drawn near, he said,

I used to conceal from you a thing which I heard from Allah's Messenger. He said, "Had you not committed sins, Allah would have brought into existence a creation that would have committed sin (and Allah) would have forgiven them." (Muslim 37:6620)

Allah created sin so that He could forgive because He, the Most Forgiving, loves to forgive... SubhanAllah!

This should encourage us to never despair of Allah's mercy... No matter what we have done. Of course, this implies us taking the humble initiative to repent, repent and repent to the One who hears all...
